Tear Me Off
Written by Kelly Riley

Tear me off
Just like a paper bag
Tear me off
Just like a dirty rag
Tear me off
Just like a piece of tape
Tear me off
Take one big scrape

But you know that it'll hurt you
You know you're never gonna heal
By hurting those you love so much
Just think �bout how they feel

We know that you'll be leave'n
We know that it is soon
So why do you push back their love
And hide in that cocoon

If you think that you'll feel better
By what you put us through
Just take a big look in the mirror
And tell me why you

Tear me off
like a paper bag
Tear me off
like a hurtin' scab
Tear me off
like a piece of tape
Tear me off
With one big scrape

In the future you'll regret it
You'll come runnin' back for love
But don't be mad when we don't listen
It's you that gave the shove

It's time for you to change your ways
We'll think nothin' �bout the past
But don't go wasting all your time
It's going all too fast

If you start right now
We all could start anew
I am willing to forgive
But not if you

Tear me off
like open'n your mail
Tear me off
like a broken nail
Tear me off
Rip me with a knife
Then throw me away
I'm outta your life...
