As I Lay Dying - Torn Within Lyrics






Through this pain I refine
Tearing me from within
Screaming to be released but held fast by Your love
Hold me here
Break me until my face breathes upon this ground
Outstretched with my head to the floor
Spent of all my strength
Relying on Yours

As I Lay Dying Torn Within Comments
  1. m.... ....

    I wasnt expecting to to be so blown away considering that they were gone for a whilr and separated.

  2. m.... ....

    Literally the only thing i dont like much about the album is the art work of the face of the album. I wish they had used the little skull they ve used before .
    But the songs are pure insanity.
    They are awesome.

  3. J.... G....

    This opener riff his hands down the best in the album. So good!

  4. R.... C....

    lost myself in a lot of rap and trance for a bit, but holy shit AILD and Amon Amarth renewed my deep love for metal in like one weekend.

  5. B.... K....

    Legendary

  6. g.... l....

    KillrBuckeye made a cover on it ,check it out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNxvxJ7OyM8

  7. G.... ....

    The build up at the end of the first verse is so fucking good

  8. F.... C....

    That fucking chorus tho... ❤

  9. W.... C....

    This song brings chills up my spine!! Fucking missed you guys !!! Metalcore for life!

  10. K.... M....

    Duds still making bad ass metal music 🤘🎤🎵🎶🎶

  11. T.... S....

    The image reminds me the fight just before the nameless king in ds3 🔥 🔥

  14. S.... D....

    It’s great to see that you guys continued to pursue the B side demo of A Greater Foundation of The Awakened 😁!!! This is music 🎶

  15. �.... ....

  18. S.... T....

    I can't express how much I love and always have loved this band

  19. J.... G....

    Lately "my only home" and "torn between" have been poping on my feed in the morning and I've felt the urge to kill dragons for some reasons

    J.... G....

    Justin G. Lol me too

  20. B.... J....

    Great song! Should be a single!

  21. S.... ....

    The build up on this made me cum...

  22. B.... D....

    Are the members in this band still Christians

    B.... D....

    who cares about their religious beliefs…. their music is what counts

  23. M.... p....

    I consider you guys a serious challenge on tight guitar technique skills, been learning how to play this album and its so much fun and powerful to play from home! Keep it coming!

    M.... p....

    any tabs available ?guitar pro?

  24. R.... ....

    whose hearts are we torn between? two lovers? two different versions of the same heart (Tim's)?

    R.... ....

    RantKid Estarossa and Mael

  25. z.... ....

    Without a doubt one of the best albums released this year

  26. u.... ....

    This song is amazing , this whole album is such a masterpiece... I feel special for listening to as i lay dying sometimes.. Thank you

  27. n.... f....

    honestly i dont know how i started listening to metal again it was weird random even but i dont know this new album isn't too bad of course not as good as back in the day

    n.... f....

    If this was released in 2005 it would have been one of their best. I don’t feel this is aged at all in a good way.

  28. R.... M....

    Miss you guys ❤️❤️❤️

  29. E.... ....

    poooooooooo

  30. m.... b....

    Pulled both ways, but still suspended
    The worst of each, reduced and blended
    Still suspended, suspended

    I thought I was stuck between two worlds
    Because I was not willing to let go
    Recklessly pulled both ways
    But somehow still suspended
    The worst of each, reduced and blended
    But as life unfolded, I realized
    The momentum to drift from side to side
    Came from within, came from inside

    I feel torn between two hearts dying, but I'll trade them in for one
    Broken and exposed, collapsing, so why would I hold on?

    One heart turned black, the other blue and bruised
    Arms breaking, arms breaking from the dreams
    Dreams shattered, the dreams that I can't reach
    There has to be, there has to be a choice I have not seen

    I feel torn between two hearts dying, but I'll trade them in for one
    Broken and exposed, collapsing, so why would I hold on?
    I feel torn between two hearts dying, but I'll trade them in for one

    One darkened over time burning away the shame
    Erasing hidden insights I did not want to be seen
    The other was beaten from being exposed
    So it hurt less to never hold it close

    I feel torn between two hearts dying, but I'll trade them in for one
    Broken and exposed, collapsing, so why would I hold on?
    I feel torn between two hearts dying, but I'll trade them in for one
    So why would I hold on? I'll trade them in for one

    Neither heart had power to fill my veins
    Or be the source of who I want to be
    Pulled both ways, but still suspended

  31. N.... �....

    The last chorus 🥶😞🤘🤘🤘

  32. R.... C....

    Best album of the year by far

  33. R.... S....

    [Intro: Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis]
    Pulled both ways, but still suspended
    The worst of each, reduced and blended
    Still suspended, suspended

    [Verse 1: Tim Lambesis & Josh Gilbert]
    I thought I was stuck between two worlds
    Because I was not willing to let go
    Recklessly pulled both ways
    But somehow still suspended
    The worst of each, reduced and blended
    But as life unfolded, I realized
    The momentum to drift from side to side
    Came from within, came from inside

    [Chorus: Josh Gilbert]
    I feel torn between two hearts dying, but I'll trade them in for one
    Broken and exposed, collapsing, so why would I hold on?

    [Verse 2: Tim Lambesis & Josh Gilbert]
    One heart turned black, the other blue and bruised
    Arms breaking, arms breaking from the dreams
    Dreams shattered, the dreams that I can't reach
    There has to be, there has to be a choice I have not seen

    [Chorus: Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis]
    I feel torn between two hearts dying, but I'll trade them in for one
    Broken and exposed, collapsing, so why would I hold on?
    I feel torn between two hearts dying, but I'll trade them in for one

    [Bridge: Tim Lambesis]
    One darkened over time burning away the shame
    Erasing hidden insights I did not want to be seen
    The other was beaten from being exposed
    So it hurt less to never hold it close

    [Chorus: Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis]
    I feel torn between two hearts dying, but I'll trade them in for one
    Broken and exposed, collapsing, so why would I hold on?
    I feel torn between two hearts dying, but I'll trade them in for one
    So why would I hold on? I'll trade them in for one

    [Outro: Tim Lambesis & Josh Gilbert]
    Neither heart had power to fill my veins
    Or be the source of who I want to be
    Pulled both ways, but still suspended

    R.... S....

    Josh in the intro??? I think that is Shane Blay. Ahahaha

  34. t.... ....

    fuck me that riff at 0:59

  35. L.... ....

    Honestly one of there best songs, the into is fucking great. These guys do metalcore right, heavy riffs but with those clean chorus.

    L.... ....

    Not to mention those sick melodic guitar leads and solos!

  36. M.... R....

    This album is absolutely great love this band

  37. S.... T....

    Fuck yeah as I lay dying back this songs sick as fuck ♥️🤘🏻

  38. A.... ....

    Serious old Ill Nino vibes from this song, especially the faded vocals in the beginning. Overall, this album is killing it

  39. S.... ....

    Their perfect album is here. Tim thank you for bringing metalcore back. The death and clean vocals are perfect.

  40. I.... B....

    Best song of the album, by far. I've reproducing it like 50 times in a row

  41. N.... F....

  42. M.... A....

    Masterpiece :')

  43. G.... G....

    you can able to make cry a stone by your songs

  44. N.... Z....

    They crushed it with this album, and Torn Between is the best song of all!

  45. J.... C....

    🤘😊🤘

  46. F.... ....

    of all the metalcore bands that have sold out the past few years and went radio friendly, im glad these guys stuck to their roots. thanks for bringing me back to middle school with this new blast from the past

    F.... ....

    @Eddie Pie check out sernade the sinner

    F.... ....

    hell yeah, i agree man.

    F.... ....

    you guys should also check out wovenwar, the project of the other AILD members when one of them went to prison

    F.... ....

    There is shitton of metalcore bands that arent like that. You are talking about those most known metalcore bands that everyone who doesnt even listen to metalcore knows of. But majority of metalcore bands are still making great music.

  47. S.... ....

    A.... J....

    @Andrej Masarovic No, it doesn´t have it, Shaped by fire it´s actually the second album without a skull on the cover

    A.... J....

    Shadows are Security has a skull, it's just the "shadow" over the moon. Have you never noticed that?

    A.... J....

    @Daniel ferreira Exactly 🔥

  53. J.... R....

    Shane Blay in the intro 😉😂

    J.... R....

    Is it? It kinda sounds like him in wovenwar

    J.... R....

    @Michael Fernandez Maybe dude... I think this.

    It's definitely a jam. I love the harmonies on the chorus. The mix of screaming and cleans are perfect!

    this and the Undertoe

    x.... ....

    Only After We've Fallen for me, too.
