Ripped Inside

You've got no reasons for the things you said
But you can't keep your feelin's to yourself
And I can't find an answer to this emptiness
No, I can't find an answer and I wish that I was dead
I never dreamt I'd hear your echo pounding in my head
And though the tears have dried, I'm ripped inside

I'll say I'm feeling fine but what's the use
When nothing could be further from the truth
Oh, where will I find comfort, strength to live again?
If there's a God above then show me how the story ends
If there's a God above then how could he desert a friend?
Because I feel so tired and ripped inside
And though the tears have dried, I'm ripped inside

You'll ache for me when your hands are tied
You'll wish you lived in another time
And if you're thinking the pain subsides
There's no place to hide when you're ripped inside

There's no meaning in the things you did
And you might still go on denying it
If you could live that hour again, would you resist?
Or was I just another victim innocently picked?
Was I carefully selected or the next one on your list?
To be cut down to size and ripped inside

I've got nowhere to hide, I'm ripped inside
I've got nowhere to hide, I'm ripped inside
And though the tears have dried, I'm ripped inside
I've got nowhere to hide
