Torn Written by: Thornalley/Cutler/Previn Sung By: Natalie Imbruglia I thought I saw a man brought to life ::Six year old Jessie sitting on the bed in a long, lacy, frilly, white nightgown, with Race on the edge of the bed, reading her a bedtime story.:: He was warm He came around like he was dignified ::Race spinning 6 year old Jessie around, while in his uniform:: He showed me what it was to cry ::Race hugging her and wiping away her tears.:: Well you couldn't be that man I adored ::Jessie staring out the window down at her father, who's in the driveway.:: You don't seem to know Seem to care what your heart is for ::Him kissing yet another blonde bimbo that he never bothered to introduce to her.:: But I don't know him anymore ::Turning away, we can see the anger and tears in her eyes.:: There's nothing where he used to lie ::Jessie slowly rips a picture of her and her father in two.:: My conversation has run dry ::Jessie, curled up in an armchair, refusing to talk to anyone.:: That's what's going on Nothing's fine I'm torn I'm all out of faith ::Slowly unfastens her locket.:: This is how I feel I'm cold and I am shamed Lying naked on the floor ::Walks to the window again, holding herself:: Illusion never changed Into something real I'm wide awake And I can see The perfect sky is torn You're a little late I'm already torn ::Memory of Race trying to apologise. Again.:: So I guess the fortune teller's right ::Jessie walks back over to her dresser and picks up the locket.:: Should have seen just what was there And not some holy light ::Walks over to the door and opens it.:: Which crawled beneath my veins And now I don't care I had no luck ::Starts walking down the hall:: I don't miss it all that much There's just so many things That I can touch I'm torn ::Jonny peeks out of his room and sees how upset Jessie is.:: I'm all out of faith ::Walks a little further and opens the door to Race's room.:: This is how I feel I'm cold and I am shamed Lying naked on the floor ::Looks out in the hallway, checking to see if anyone is around. Jonny ducks back into his room.:: Illusion never changed Into something real ::Closes the door softly. Jonny steps back out.:: I'm wide awake And I can see The perfect sky is torn You're a little late I'm already torn ::Memory of Race trying to apologise. Again.:: Torn There's nothing where he used to lie ::Opens the locket and looks at the picture inside.:: My inspiration has run dry ::Jessie, curled up in an armchair, refusing to talk to anyone.:: That's what's going on Nothing's fine I'm torn I'm all out of faith :: Jessie opens up her hand and lets the chain fall on Race's bed.:: This is how I feel I'm cold and I am shamed Lying naked on the floor ::Jessie turns around and her eyes widen as Jonny steps into the room.:: Illusion never changed Into something real ::He walks a little closer, his forehead wrinkled.:: I'm wide awake And I can see The perfect sky is torn ::Jessie and Jonny just look at each other, Tears filling her eyes.:: You're a little late I'm already torn ::Memory of Race trying to apologise. Again.:: I'm all out of faith This is how I feel I'm cold and I'm ashamed Bound and broken on the floor ::Jessie runs into Jonny's arms, crying:: You're a little late I'm already torn Torn. ::Shift from Jonny and Jessie to the locket which holds a picture of Race hugging the 6 year old Jessie.:: That's it. I know, most likely, it stinks, but It's my first one. I'm sorry. Please Comment! PEACE!
