| This is what my brother is going through right now. his girlfriend and him have been together for over 2 years, and she told him that "they needed time apart".. he's done nothing but treat her right, and doesn't deserve the way she's been treating him. she changes her mind more than anything, first she doesn't want him, then she does, then she doesn't and tells him that shes going to start dating someone else at work, then they get back together, and he gives her a diamond necklace for christmas and she didn't buy him anything. he even told me that this song describes their relationship right now. I feel terrible for him, but you can't help who you love. ah, anyways.... good song. | |

| Corrected Lyrics: [INTRO CHORUS] I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut My weakness is that I care too much My scars remind me that the past is real I tear my heart open just to feel Drunk and I'm feeling down and I just wanna be alone I'm pissed cause you came around Why don't you just go home Cause you channeled all your pain and I can't help you fix yourself You're making me insane All I can say is [ACTUAL CHORUS] I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut My weakness is that I care too much Our scars remind us that the past is real I tear my heart open just to feel I tried to help you once Against my own advice I saw you goin' down But you never realized That your drowning in the water So I offered you my hand Compassion's in my nature Tonight is our last stand Chorus I'm drunk and I'm feeling down and I just wanna be alone You shouldn't have ever come around Why don't you just go home? Cause your drowning in the water and I tried to grab your hand and I left my heart open but you didn't understand but you didn't understand GO. FIX. YOURSELF. I can't help you fix yourself But at least I can say I tried I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life I can't help you fix yourself But at least I can say I tried I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life Chorus x2 | |

| This song rules. It's also mine and my best friend's song, because the lyrics relate to us so much. (long history of falling out, etc) I agree with Lucky 13x too. Scars and Last Resort are well suited. | |

| definately, best song on the album.. it always seems when your so close to changing your ways, the past comes back for reconciliation, only to bury yourself further in the ground... this song is a great motivator for people being dragged down by selfish co-dependants... i hate my ex... lol | |

| the bitch broke his heart. he did everything he could for her but it just wasnt good enough. he even went as far as to sacrifice everything he was to be with her but he took from him and left him alone. then she comes around again wanting him back and hes trying to keep from going back to her. | |

| This song sucks balls. Its just another damn sorry rock song that sound the same. The lyrics are horrible. The scars remind me the past is real, I tear my heart open just to feel. That has to be quite possibly the worst lyrics ever written. It like he wouldnt think of anything else to rhyme with real. Worst song of the year by far | |
