TORN APART
BEHIND THE SCENES
Torn Apart marks the first of many tracks to usher in a great 2022 summer – and the first song that I release as a Berlin resident. Infused with the city’s electronic spirit, this track has become an absolute banger! Pumping basslines, groovy chords, and haunting vocals manifest true earworm qualities in this song.
The song tells the story of a couple that is currently at the crossroads of their relationship. Is this really what I am looking for? Or are we holding on to something that does not make either of us happy? Are we courageous enough to make a tough decision rather than to stay in a subpar but familiar situation? Inspired by one of my favorite songs ‘Scared To Be Lonely’ by Martin Garrix and Dua Lipa, ‘Torn Apart’ takes a very different approach than most pop songs to embody this situation: a groovy dance beat that symbolizes the want to move forward, accompanied by a retro sound design that infuses feelings of nostalgia of the past relationship. Which direction ultimately wins? You decide!
LYRICS
Verse 1
Is this the way that you saw it? Is this the way that you planned from the start?
Is this the way that you lived it in your mind? Is this the way that you end it?
Is this the way that you make me fall apart? Is this the way that you break a good girl’s heart?
Chorus 1 & 2
I’m torn apart, is this the way that you end it?
Is this way that you make me fall apart? Is this the way that you break a good girl’s heart?
Verse 2
Never really scared to show you what I feel inside. Everything I got right here on the table, baby you and I.
I found myself living it up making this dream come true. Everything I see in my head is all because of you.
Bridge
Give me your love now, give me your love now. Baby let me show you how to do this magic.
Give me your love now, give me your love now. Baby let me show you how to do this magic.
We can make the magic, baby I’m your magic! We can make the magic, baby I’m your magic!
