Torn
Renascentia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Only eclipsed by the pain
It's the price that I pay
As my blood falls like rain
Pull the knife from my back as my world fades to black
You're the last thing I see
How could you do this to me
How could you do this me
Leave me blind to despise you
Drench your blade with blood from the heart that I gave you
Come back to me the one I love
You watch me bleed but it's never enough
Your promises
Always hurt like lies
I begged for your love and you just threw away mine
I tried to pick up the pieces
Build a house from this empty hole
I wanted the future you promised
But I guess it's just another thing you stole
Another thing you fucking stole
So burn it all
So burn it all to the ground
I'll watch it fall
I'm giving up everything now
I guess it never mattered to you
I was just someone to use
I was a fool to think you'd love me
Come back to me the one I love
You watch me bleed but it's never enough
Your promises
Always hurt like lies
I begged for your love and you just threw away mine
The lyrics of Renascentia's song Torn in 2 depict the turmoil of a person who has been betrayed by someone they loved. The song begins with the singer's angst-ridden hatred, which is only made worse by the pain they feel as their blood falls like rain. The singer implores the betraying party to pull the knife from their back as their world fades to black. This is a metaphorical reference for the emotional pain the singer is going through. The singer's last memory is of the person who betrayed them, and they question how they could do such a thing. The betrayer's lies have left the singer blind with hatred, and they have metaphorically drenched their blade with the blood of the singer's heart.
Despite the immense pain, the singer still longs for the one they love to come back to them. The singer acknowledges that the betrayer watches them bleed, but it is never enough to satisfy their desires. The promises made by the betrayer are continuous sources of hurtful lies. The singer begged for the love of the person who betrayed them, but it was thrown away like it was nothing.
The singer attempted to pick up the pieces of their shattered heart and tried to build a future based on the promises that the betrayer made. But the singer soon realized that it was all just another thing that the betrayer stole from them. The singer decides to burn everything to the ground and watch it all fall apart. They come to terms with the fact that their love did not matter to the betrayer and they were merely an object to use. The singer admits that they were a fool to think that the betrayer loved them.

My hatred
The intense feeling of dislike that I possess
Only eclipsed by the pain
The pain is the only thing that is greater than my hatred
It's the price that I pay
This agony is the cost of loving you
As my blood falls like rain
My blood flows continuously like the rain from the clouds
Pull the knife from my back as my world fades to black
As I am passing out, please remove the metaphorical back-stabbing you did to me
You're the last thing I see
As I leave this world, I take a last look at you
How could you do this to me
I cannot believe you did this to me
You tell nothing but lies
You always speak lies
Leave me blind to despise you
You blinded me and made me hate you
Drench your blade with blood from the heart that I gave you
You used the love that I gave you to kill me
Come back to me the one I love
Please return to me, my beloved
You watch me bleed but it's never enough
You take pleasure in my pain but it's still never enough for you
Your promises
The assurances you gave me
Always hurt like lies
Your promises only hurt me like lies
I begged for your love and you just threw away mine
I implored you to love me, but you just discarded my love
I tried to pick up the pieces
I attempted to repair the damage
Build a house from this empty hole
I wanted to construct a new life from this void
I wanted the future you promised
I desired the future you pledged to give me
But I guess it's just another thing you stole
I suppose you just took that away from me too
Another thing you fucking stole
You took away something precious from me once again
So burn it all
I want to destroy everything
So burn it all to the ground
I want to see everything crumble before me
I'll watch it fall
I will witness everything collapse
I'm giving up everything now
I am surrendering everything now
I guess it never mattered to you
I realize now that it didn't matter to you
I was just someone to use
I was merely a tool for you to utilize
I was a fool to think you'd love me
I was stupid to believe that you ever truly loved me
