Meat Loaf - Tear Me Down lyrics
[Meat Loaf - Tear Me Down lyrics]
Listen i was born on the other side
Just always looking to you
I made it over the great divide
Now I'm coming for you
Your forces lined up in battle
Your soldiers and your machines
The sun been blacked out by shadows
The darkest hour now you've ever seen
And I'm easy and I'm serious
They try and tear me down
You want me baby I dare you
Try and tear me down
I rose up on the doctor's slab
Like Lazarus from the pit
And everyone wants to take a stab
Decorate me with blood, graffiti and spit
I've been held up on money
I've been beaten out of spite
You want a piece of me honey? Lose or win
You know you've been in a fight
And I'm easy and I'm serious
They try and tear me down
You want me baby I dare you
Try and tear me down
Girl: On March 6th
1836 the walls of the Alamo fell
To the Mexican army after a 12 day siege
The troops of Santa
Ana were victorious but too exhausted to
Hold on and the Texans
Won the war it's further from
El Paso to Texarkana, then
From New York to Chicago and
When it joined the Union, texas
Was the biggest state yeah, everything
From Texas is big, larger than
Life and none bigger than little Marvin
Aday so big his daddy
Called him Meat Loaf he grew into a big man
With a big voice and he
Sings big songs and has
Big hit's you can try and tear him down
Now there ain't much difference
Between a bridge and a wall
Without me right in the middle baby
You'll be nothing at all
And I'm easy and I'm serious
They try and tear me down
You want me baby I dare you
Try and tear me down
Just always looking to you
I made it over the great divide
Now I'm coming for you
Your forces lined up in battle
Your soldiers and your machines
The sun been blacked out by shadows
The darkest hour now you've ever seen
And I'm easy and I'm serious
They try and tear me down
You want me baby I dare you
Try and tear me down
I rose up on the doctor's slab
Like Lazarus from the pit
And everyone wants to take a stab
Decorate me with blood, graffiti and spit
I've been held up on money
I've been beaten out of spite
You want a piece of me honey? Lose or win
You know you've been in a fight
And I'm easy and I'm serious
They try and tear me down
You want me baby I dare you
Try and tear me down
