Album / live version
[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!

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

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]
