Maybe it's the things I say
Maybe I should think, before I speak
But I thought that I knew enough
To know myself and do what's right for me

And these walls I'm building now
You used to bring them down
And the tears I'm crying out
You used to wipe away

I though you said it was easy
Listening to your heart
I thought you said I'd be ok
So why am I breaking apart

Don't wanna be torn
Don't wanna be torn
Don't wanna be torn
Don't wanna be torn

Don't make me have to choose between
What I want and what you think I need
Cause I'll always be a little girl
But even little girls have got to dream

Now it all feels like a fight
You were always on my side
And the lonely I've been now
You used to make it go away

I though you said it was easy
Listening to your heart
I thought you said I'd be ok
So why am I breaking a part
Don't wanna be torn

Why is all this so confusing, complicated
And consuming
Why does all this make me angry,
I wanna go back to being happy

These tears I'm crying now
You used to wipe away

I though you said it was easy
Listening to your heart
I thought you said I'd be ok
So why am I breaking a part

Don't wanna be torn
Don't wanna be torn
Don't wanna be torn
Don't wanna be torn
