|[Chorus]
|[Intro]
Help me polarize, help me polarize, help me down
Yeah, yeah, yeah!


Those stairs is where I'll be hidin' all my problems


Help me polarize, help me polarize, help me out
[Verse 1]


My friends and I, we got a lot of problems
We don't believe what's on TV


Because it's what we want to see


[Verse 1]
And what we want we know we can't believe
 
You know where I'm coming from
 
Though I am running to you


All I feel is deny, deny, denial
We have all learned to kill our dreams




[Pre-Chorus]
[Pre-Chorus]


I wanted to be a better brother, better son
I need to know


Wanted to be a better adversary to the evil I have done
That when I fail, you'll still be here, mm


I have none to show to the one I love
'Cause if you stick around, I'll sing you pretty sounds


But deny, deny, denial
And we'll make money selling your hair




[Chorus]
[Chorus]


Help me polarize, help me polarize, help me down
I don't care what's in your hair


Those stairs is where I'll be hidin' all my problems
I just wanna know what's on your mind


Help me polarize, help me polarize, help me out
I used to say, "I wanna die before I'm old"


My friends and I, we got a lot of problems
But because of you, I might think twice


Yeah, yeah, yeah!


[Verse 2]
Yeah, yeah, yeah!


Polarize is taking your disguises


Separating 'em, splitting 'em up from wrong and right
[Interlude]


It's deciding where to die and deciding where to fight
Alright, second verse


Deny, deny, denial


[Verse 2]


[Pre-Chorus]
What if my dream does not happen?


I wanted to be a better brother, better son
Would I just change what I've told my friends?


Wanted to be a better adversary to the evil I have done
Don't want to know who I would be


I have none to show to the one I love
When I wake up from a dreamer's sleep


But deny, deny, denial


[Pre-Chorus]


[Chorus]
I need to know


Help me polarize, help me polarize, help me down
That when I fail, you'll still be here, oh


Those stairs is where I'll be hidin' all my problems
'Cause if you stick around, I'll sing you pretty sounds


Help me polarize, help me polarize, help me out
And we'll make money selling your hair


My friends and I, we got a lot of problems


[Chorus]


[Refrain]
But I don't care what's in your hair


Ah-da-da, da-da, da-da da-da
I just wanna know what's on your mind


Ah-da-da, da-da, we have problems
I used to say I wanna die before I'm old


Ah-da-da, da-da, da-da da-da
But because of you, I might think twice


Ah-da-da, da-da, we have problems
I don't care what's in your hair


I just wanna know what's on your mind


[Bridge]
I used to say I wanna die before I'm old


Domingo en fuego
But because of you, I might think twice


I think I lost my halo


I don't know where you are
[Outro]
 
You'll have to come and find me, find me
 
Domingo en fuego
 
I think I lost my halo
 
I don't know where you are


You'll have to come and find me, find me

[Intro]

Yeah, yeah, yeah!


[Verse 1]

We don't believe what's on TV

Because it's what we want to see

And what we want we know we can't believe

We have all learned to kill our dreams


[Pre-Chorus]

I need to know

That when I fail, you'll still be here, mm

'Cause if you stick around, I'll sing you pretty sounds

And we'll make money selling your hair


[Chorus]

I don't care what's in your hair

I just wanna know what's on your mind

I used to say, "I wanna die before I'm old"

But because of you, I might think twice

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Yeah, yeah, yeah!


[Interlude]

Alright, second verse


[Verse 2]

What if my dream does not happen?

Would I just change what I've told my friends?

Don't want to know who I would be

When I wake up from a dreamer's sleep


[Pre-Chorus]

I need to know

That when I fail, you'll still be here, oh

'Cause if you stick around, I'll sing you pretty sounds

And we'll make money selling your hair


[Chorus]

But I don't care what's in your hair

I just wanna know what's on your mind

I used to say I wanna die before I'm old

But because of you, I might think twice

I don't care what's in your hair

I just wanna know what's on your mind

I used to say I wanna die before I'm old

But because of you, I might think twice


[Outro]

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh!

Lyrics meaning

Lyrics
“Tear in My Heart” is the second single from Twenty One Pilots' fourth studio album, Blurryface. Inspired by Tyler Joseph’s wife, Jenna Joseph, the song details the importance of their relationship.

“Tear in My Heart” is the only song from the album not to feature Blurryface, who is a character representing the protagonists fears and anxieties. This fact may insinuate that Jenna protects him from Blurryface.[1]
