The story behind the song

"Tear in My Heart" is an unabashed love song, an ode dedicated to a loved one, with Tyler Joseph's wife Jenna being the inspiration behind it. The song finds Joseph in a romantic prose as he writes for his wife, about how she shocked him out of a state of inaction. Its bridge was based on Joseph's personal experience driving long hours from a family vacation while his future wife slept, leaving him to deal with all the traffic. This uptempo pop song, from the album Blurryface, acts as a break from the morbidity that prevailed much of the album by talking about falling in love. It plays like a joyful declaration of devotion.
