  • She opened her heart to a tearaway, sheepskin tearaway
    He was covered in scars and full of heroin
    Everyone said from the start
    Not one single thing could ever be okay
    She didn't listen anyway

    She just opened her heart, threw her cares away
    At night they held on so tight in the dark
    He brushed her hair away
    She heard him say

    All my life I've been fighting
    And making the best
    ?

    Oh, your fighting got you nowhere
    If nowhere's here with you, all I'm asking
    And you could fight forever
    But if you killed them all, you'd never will

    So, give me your surrender
    There are other ways to kill a prey
    But then it would never mend you
    It's like trying to dry your eyes in a pouring rain

    She opened her heart to a tearaway, a sheepskin tearaway
    All covered in scars and full of heroin

    Tearaway, sheepskin tearaway
    Sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep
