How do I keep everything
From scraping zero?
I struggle to face myself again
I'm higher than sleep
But lower than the ground I fall to
One of these years I'll try again

R:
Cause I'm tortured, tortured by you
Dark are the hearts
That won't let love ring true
Release this ball and chain
No more heartache and pain
Tortured, tortured by you

I was too deep
Swimming in the shallow water
Tied to my arms, oh, your weight again
The damage I sweep beneath
The truth I've hidden, the poion that's sweet
I'll taste again

R:

Tortured!!!

Empty my fear of rolling
Through another victim
Trying to stay away again
This is not a call
Hey the band is playing
The seats are down, I'm lost in the crowd, I go on

R:
Yeah I'm tortured, yes I'm tortured!!! 

Every time I try, I get more than high...
