Ripped Inside

You've got no reasons for the things you said

But you can't keep your feelin's to yourself

And I can't find an answer to this emptiness

No I can't find an answer and I wish that I was dead

I never dreamt I'd hear your echo pounding in my head

And though the tears have dried I'm ripped inside

I'll say I'm feeling fine but what's the use

When nothing could be further from the truth

Oh where will I find comfort strength to live again

If there's a God above then show me how the story ends

If there's a God above then how could he desert a friend

Because I feel so tired and ripped inside

And though the tears have dried I'm ripped inside

You'll ache for me when your hands are tied

You'll wish you lived in another time

And if you're thinking the pain subsides

There's no place to hide when you're ripped inside

There's no meaning in the things you did

And you might still go on denying it

If you could live that hour again would you resist

Or was I just another victim innocently picked

Was I carefully selected or the next one on your list

To be cut down to size and ripped inside

I've got nowhere to hide I'm ripped inside

I've got nowhere to hide I'm ripped inside

And though the tears have dried I'm ripped inside

I've got nowhere to hide
