Torn to Pieces (On Roses) Lyrics

You know it's not enough
To keep your tears around your wrist
You keep your merits on a list
You keep your money in a bank
You keep riding your rank
Your rank

There's no end to your lies
No switches for the light
No cure for your plight
and no wind for your paper kite

Torn to pieces
On roses

You won't sleep
There's a caffeine stain on your midnight soul
A caffeine stain on your midnight soul
A caffeine stain on your midnight soul
Your midnight soul
Making a midnight howl

You won't sleep until you sign on the dotted line

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
