"The World Is Gonna Tear Us Apart" lyrics

We have our own dreams
They split in two streams
I hope some day they have the chance to meet
Before we wash out to sea

I know I'll take it pretty hard
Break down my self
Keep up my guard
I'll make so sure
To keep my lovers in the dark
Because I still carry you with me

And in the end what do we know?
Some people just come and go
And the truth it sits
Just like a pit right in your heart
Oh the world is gonna tear us apart

You say it's heartless not to cry
But I can't promise I won't try
There's a million ways to say our last goodbye
But only so much time

And we pretend like we both know
Some people just come and go
But what can you learn
From a life you never start
Oh the world is gonna tear
And I know that I'm scared
Oh the world is gonna tear us apart
