Lyrics

Lyrics

Album version
[Refrain]

My shadow tilts its head at me

Spirits in the dark are waiting

I will let the wind go quietly

I will let the wind go quietly


[Verse 1]

Be the one, be the one to take my soul and make it undone

Be the one, be the one to take me home and show me the sun

I know, I know you can bring the fire, I can bring the bones

I know, I know you'll make the fire, my bones will make it grow


[Chorus]

Where we're from, there's no sun, our hometown's in the dark

Where we're from, we're no one, our hometown's in the dark

Our hometown's in the dark


[Refrain]

My shadow tilts its head at me

Spirits in the dark are waiting

I will let the wind go quietly

I will let the wind go quietly


[Verse 2]

Put away, put away all the gods your father served today

Put away, put away your traditions, believe me when I say

We don't know, we don't know how to put back the power in our soul

We don't know, we don't know where to find what once was in our bones


[Chorus]

Where we're from, there's no sun, our hometown's in the dark

Where we're from, we're no one, our hometown's in the dark

Our hometown's in the dark


[Refrain]

My shadow tilts its head at me

Spirits in the dark are waiting

I will let the wind go quietly

I will let the wind go quietly


[Chorus]

Where we're from, there's no sun, our hometown's in the dark

Where we're from, we're no one, our hometown's in the dark

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]
