Torn
Hixxy / Sharkey / Scott Brown / Breeze & Styles Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna swear
A little less often than I did then
We had potty mouths when we thought swearing was cool
(Tone it down a bit I guess)

Wanna think
As much or more as I did then
Seems like there's never the time these days
All I had was time
I never realized

Want to feel
More confident than I did then
I'm already halfway there
How did I function in such fear?

Wanna breathe
Harder than I did then
Only if I had started earlier

Wanna see
Way more than I did then




In several months I am getting there
I am getting there
