Always Torn Lyrics

One arm over the snake pit
One arm over the wishing well
One foot dances high in heaven
The other foot burns in hell

I have climbed to the highest ecstasies
I have plunged into the foulest agonies
Oh, high in heaven
Stretched out on pegs
Will my emotions, my emotions
Watch my skin rip, rip and tear

I'm always torn x3

I have made you into a symbol of all my longing
I have turned you into a focus for all my weakness
For all my weakness, now
Skin, stretched like sails in a holy gale
I'm bursting open, I'm bursting open
Watch my skin rip, rip and tear

I'm always torn x11

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.
