Torn
Beth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He was warm - he came around like
He was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know - don't seem to care
What your heart is for
No I don't know him anymore
There's nothin' where we used to lie
Conversation has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's fine
I'm torn
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am chained
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm cold and I am shamed and bound
And broken on the floor
And I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn
So I guess the fortune teller's right
I should have seen just what was there
And not some holy light
But you crawled beneath my veins
And now I don't care
I have no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can't touch
There's nothing where he used to lie
My conversation has run dry
That's what is goin' on
Nothin's right
I'm torn
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake
And I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn
The lyrics to Beth's song Torn are emotionally gripping and illustrate the struggle of a woman who has been hurt and is grappling with her feelings. The opening lines, "I thought I saw a man brought to life / He was warm - he came around like / He was dignified," describe how the singer believed that she had found a man who was worth investing her emotions in. She believed that he was someone she could rely on, but later discovers that her faith in him was misplaced.
Further on in the song, the lyrics, "There's nothing where we used to lie / Conversation has run dry / That's what's going on / Nothing's fine," demonstrate how the relationship has deteriorated, and there is no longer any semblance of the love that they once shared. The singer feels torn about the situation and is left feeling empty and cold. She's grappling with feelings of betrayal, and the lyrics, "Illusion never changed into something real / I'm wide awake, and I can see the perfect sky is torn," convey that the perfect image of their relationship has been shattered.
The final lines, "So I guess the fortune teller's right / I should have seen just what was there / And not some holy light / But you crawled beneath my veins / And now I don't care," reveal that the singer realizes that she should have seen the writing on the wall and not held onto the relationship. However, she was so caught up in her emotions that she now feels unable to care. These lyrics illustrate the intense emotional impact that this relationship has had on the singer.
Line by Line Meaning
I thought I saw a man brought to life
I thought I saw a man who was once lifeless alive before me
He was warm - he came around like
He was welcoming and had a positive attitude
He was dignified
He was respectable and had high moral standards
He showed me what it was to cry
He helped me understand the depths of sadness
Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You are not the person whom I idolized and loved
You don't seem to know - don't seem to care
You don't appear to possess knowledge or concern about important matters
What your heart is for
You are uncertain about the purpose or meaning of your own heart
No I don't know him anymore
He is no longer recognizable or familiar to me
There's nothin' where we used to lie
The place where we used to spend time together is now empty
Conversation has run dry
We have nothing left to say to each other
That's what's going on
This is the situation we find ourselves in
Nothing's fine
Everything is not okay
I'm torn
I am in a state of emotional conflict or distress
I'm all out of faith
I no longer have any belief or confidence
This is how I feel
This accurately represents my emotions
I'm cold and I am chained
I feel disconnected and restricted
Lying naked on the floor
I am vulnerable and exposed
Illusion never changed
This false perception I had never diminished
Into something real
Transformed into a tangible reality
I'm cold and I am shamed and bound
I feel embarrassed and confined
And broken on the floor
I am shattered and defeated
And I can see the perfect sky is torn
Even something that seems perfect can be ruined
You're a little late
You showed up too late
I'm already torn
I was already emotionally broken
So I guess the fortune teller's right
It turns out the fortune teller was correct
I should have seen just what was there
I neglected to see what was truly happening
And not some holy light
I should have focused on reality, not a false belief
But you crawled beneath my veins
You infiltrated every part of my being
And now I don't care
I have lost all interest or concern
I have no luck
I am not fortunate
I don't miss it all that much
I don't feel the loss too keenly
There's just so many things
There are a lot of things
That I can't touch
That are out of my reach or beyond my control
I'm wide awake
I am fully alert
And I can see the perfect sky is torn
Even something that seems perfect can be ruined
You're a little late
You showed up too late
I'm already torn
I was already emotionally broken
