Torn in Two Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Is this the way it's got to be?
Ignite the fire inside of me
Embrace the life of tragedy
A tide of war and broken dreams


[Chorus]
I am torn in two
Hold on, hold on
We're barely alive

I am faded through
Hold on, hold on
The fallen arise
I will fight this war for you
And let the dawn of love survive

Broken, I crawl back to life

[Verse 2]
Is this the fate we fall between?
Deface the life inside of me
Drain the heart of atrophy
And take away the remedy

[Chorus]
I am torn in two
Hold on, hold on
We're barely alive
I am faded through
Hold on, hold on
The fallen arise
I will fight this war for you
And let the dawn of love survive
Broken, I crawl back to life
[Chorus]
I am torn in two (Please hold on)
Hold on, hold on
We're barely alive
I am faded through (Please hold on)
Hold on, hold on
The fallen arise
I will fight this war for you (Please hold on)
And let the dawn of love survive
Broken, I crawl back to life

[Outro]
Hold on
Rise
Hold on
Rise
Hold on
Rise
Hold on

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

This song further describes the journey of a father whose daughter had been kidnapped and murdered. Picking up right after Red Cold River, Torn in Two shows the now-deformed father in what appears to be Hell, trying to find his missing daughter. As he searches, he makes discoveries that would be deemed deeply disturbing to most; a woman who appears to be like a demon and a man that could be depicted as the Devil himself. As the song closes out, the father finds his daughter once more, but again the two are separated, this time possibly forever.
