Torn
The New Story Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what t was to cry
Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know - or seem to care what your heart's for
I don't know him anymore
There's nothing where he used to lie
My conversation has run dry
That's what's goin' on
Nothing's fine
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

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
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
Torn

There's nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That's what's goin' on
Nothing's fine
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
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
When I'm broken on the floor




You're a little late I'm already torn
Torn

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in this song tell the story of a person who feels betrayed by someone they once loved. The first verse describes how the person thought they saw this man who they adored come back to life, and how he taught them how to cry. However, they then realize that the man isn't who they thought he was, and doesn't seem to know or care what his heart is for. They feel like they don't know him anymore and that there's nothing left of him. The chorus expresses the person's feelings of being torn, out of faith, and feeling cold and shamed. They feel like they're lying naked on the floor and that the illusion of their relationship never changed into something real.


The second verse continues the story of betrayal by reflecting on how the person should have seen what was there instead of just some holy light. The person feels like the man crawled beneath their veins, and now they don't care about their luck or missing him. There are just so many things they can't touch or have, and they feel torn. The chorus repeats with the perfect sky being torn and the person feeling like they're broken on the floor.


Overall, this song portrays the pain and confusion of a failed relationship, where someone felt like they were betrayed by someone they truly loved.

He exposed me to a feeling of emotional pain and sorrow


Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You are not capable of being the person I previously cherished


You don't seem to know - or seem to care what your heart's for
You appear unaware or unconcerned about the true desires of your heart


I don't know him anymore
I no longer recognize the person I once knew


There's nothing where he used to lie
The place where he once existed is now empty and void


My conversation has run dry
My ability to communicate effectively has ceased


That's what's goin' on
This is the situation at hand


Nothing's fine
Everything is not okay

I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
I have lost belief and trust, and this is my current emotional state

Lying naked on the floor
Metaphorically, I am exposing my vulnerability and rawness


Illusion never changed
The deception has remained constant


Into something real
The falsehood has become reality


I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
I am fully aware of the truth, that even the beautiful and ideal elements of my environment are damaged


You're a little late I'm already torn
It is too late for you to help me, as I am already in a state of emotional turmoil


So I guess the fortune teller's right
Perhaps the fortune teller was correct


I should have seen just what was there and not some holy light
I should have recognized the reality of the situation instead of idealizing it


But you crawled beneath my veins and now I don't care, I have
You have become so intertwined with me that I no longer have the capacity to care


No luck
I have been unlucky


I don't miss it all that much
I do not feel a great sense of longing or loss


There's just so many things
There are countless factors and circumstances


That I can't touch
That I am helpless to change or influence


My inspiration has run dry
I am lacking motivation and creativity


When I'm broken on the floor
In my moment of weakness and vulnerability
