[Verse 1]
Blindsided once again
Fooled by the fool within, you know
You're dead to a sacrifice
Slowly you wake to find no hope
Withered and burning red
The promises you left for dead go cold
But this too will surely fade
The truth you cannot escape
That we have to face and learn from mistakes to grow

[Chorus]
Don't let the world tear us apart
Don't live a lie, don't break a heart
Don't compromise, just wait

[Verse 2]
Drink from a poisoned well
Only to kill yourself alone
Wake up and take a stand
While there is still a chance, let go
Hatred cannot replace the love you are meant to save and hold
Silence the great divide
This truth you cannot deny
We have to face and learn from mistakes to grow
[Chorus]
Don't let the world tear us apart
Don't live a lie, don't break a heart
Don't compromise, just wait

[Bridge]
If there is something worth saving
Let it show
If there is something worth changing
Let it go
This time is a-wasting
Now you know

[Chorus]
Don't let the world tear us apart
Don't live a lie, don't break a heart
Don't compromise, just wait
Don't compromise, just wait
Don't let the world tear us apart
Tear us apart
Tear us apart
