Ripped Apart Lyrics

Throw stones
Even though you live in a glass house of your own
And I don’t sympathize or criticize
Rumor has it you’ve got something to say
You’ve got nothing on me
Nothing on me
Rumor has it you keep repeating yourself
You’ve got nothing on me
Nothing on me

Second wind
Second sight
Second skin
Go within
Ripped apart
Ripped apart on sight

Fork tongue
It’s like a razor when you want to use it
And use it wrong
And I don’t compromise or socialize
Rumor has it you’ve got something to say
You’ve got nothing on me
Nothing on me
Rumor has it you keep repeating yourself
You’ve got nothing on me
Nothing on me

Second wind
Second sight
Second skin
Go within
Ripped apart
Ripped apart on sight
Ripped apart, ripped apart, ripped apart
Ripped apart, ripped apart, ripped apart
Ripped apart, ripped apart, ripped apart
Ripped apart, ripped apart, ripped apart

Goddamn, shit, I’m feeling it
When we see each other it’s throw time
When we see each other it’s throw time
When we see each other it’s go time

You throw stones and I don’t criticize
You throw stones and I don’t sympathize
You throw stones and I don’t criticize
You throw stones…

the meaning is pretty obivious, its about criticism, and the whole "don't throw stones if you live in a glass house" thing comes into too. pretty well written song too, hell i think this song could be part 2 to 'I Could Care Less', thats just me saying that

yea, deffiantly about criticism, when someone cristicises somebody even when you they cant do any better than themselves (throw stones....) but i think its also talks about going against them, taking there criticism and turning it against them and ripping them apart after they try to criticize you

could someone please tell me what you think the part that sais "second wind. second sight. second skin. go within! ripped apart!!!" means? i don't quite get that part. i just want someone else's opinion

Hmm. Second wind usually referes to a return to form. Like if a boxer gets his "second wind" it means he's got a burst of energy and is starting to fight back harder. Second skin could just mean tougher against the criticism. Second sight will need a bit more imagination though. Maybe the insults are all too predictable so you see them coming, or something like that!!

Ripped apart itself I'd say is a verbal thing. Whenever you're seen by someone who doesnt agree with you or, in my case, hates the way I dress (like chavs and trendies) the usual result is a torrent of abuse. Hence ripped apart on sight.

Fits the whole criticism thing nicely I thought!

Great song. Great riff work!
