Tattered and Torn

You've got a book, to write
Hiding down, deep inside
But it may never ever come out, to see the view
Your mind can see the limelight
Bow to the crowd, exit stage right
But in the world, your dreams are known to just a few

And I wish you would tell me
What's in between those lines
What story you're writing
what do you hide behind

And I wish you would show me
The way you feel inside
Why do you seem so sad
I wish that I could ease your mind

Tattered and torn
All your edges are worn
But I love your story, just like you
Tattered and torn

Don't tell me the fairytale
You know I'm not so frail
I've had my own twists and turns along the road
Will you let someone share your tale
Look underneath the veil
We both know, that the cover is just for show

And I wish you would tell me
What do you have to say
And do you think maybe
Your heart could find a way

To let go and show me
What's in the storyline
Your questions and answers
Cause baby I can't read your mind

Tattered and torn
All your edges are worn
But I love your story, just like you
Tattered and torn

The future is still unmade
The past has already been played
It's time to turn the page

Tattered and torn
All your edges are worn
But I love your story, just like you
Tattered and torn

Hmmmmm
