Tear Me Down Lyrics - Meat Loaf

Listen 

I was born on the other side 

Just always looking to you 

I made it over the great divide 

Now I'm coming for you 

Your forces lined up in battle 

Your soldiers and your machines 

The sun been blacked out by shadows 

The darkest hour now you've ever seen 

And I'm easy and I'm serious 

They try and tear me down 

You want me baby I dare you 

Try and tear me down

I rose up on the doctor's slab 

Like Lazarus from the pit 

And everyone wants to take a stab 

Decorate me with blood, graffiti and spit 

I've been held up on money 

I've been beaten out of spite 

You want a piece of me honey? 

Lose or win 

You know you've been in a fight 

And I'm easy and I'm serious 

They try and tear me down 

You want me baby I dare you 

Try and tear me down 

Girl: On March 6th, 1836 the walls of the Alamo fell to the Mexican army. After a 12-day siege, the troops of Santa Ana were victorious but too exhausted to hold on and the Texans won the war. It's further from El Paso to Texarkana, then from New York to Chicago. And when it joined the Union, Texas was the biggest state. Yeah, everything from Texas is big, larger than life and none bigger than little Marvin Aday. So big his daddy called him Meat Loaf. He grew into a big man, with a big voice. And he sings big songs and has big hits. You can try and tear him down. 

Now there ain't much difference 

Between a bridge and a wall 

Without me right in the middle baby 

You'll be nothing at all

And I'm easy and I'm serious 

They try and tear me down 

You want me baby I dare you 

Try and tear me down
