You gotta go out and find the one you love
You gotta go out and find your company
You gotta reform your love or tear it down
But at the end of the day its all the same
You keep a piece of the wreckage in your heart
And leave the rest of the carnage in the sun
If you take all the bad thoughts from your mind
It will tear you apart from everyone
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
I see the storm is arising through the smoke
And the light is escaping through the stars
You feel the need to retract it from yourself
Like a pulse that's erupting in your heart
You never wanted to live the secret life but
That's what happens to kids in America
So let's dance in the moonlight till we drown
In the place where the symptoms all began
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
There's a fire climbing higher than ever before
While the roadside attractions grow further away from you
John's got a gun but the war ain't won
It's a crapshoot followed by a total disaster
While the band plays "Miss You" and the kids all dance
We'll sneak to the bar before the bugs can catch us
It's a wedding of weeds and mumbo jumbo
On a Saturday night in the Cascade Highlands
We dream of The Killers and Modest Mouse
But we've been diagnosed with Western dysphoria
The flames are stoked by an idiot wind
And the only cure is being close to me
You gotta go out and find the one you love
You gotta go out and find your company
You gotta reform your love or tear it down
But at the end of the day its all the same
You gotta go out and find the one you love
You gotta go out and find your company
You gotta reform your love or tear it down
But at the end of the day its all the same
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
Tear us apart, tear us apart
Oh my love, it's gonna tear us apart
