Pieces of You, Pieces of Me

Pieces of You, Pieces of Me

Pieces of you

Pieces of me

Shattering and falling

Why crash and burn when the rage inside is too hard to bear

Pieces of you

Pieces of me

Fluttering away into the crystal breeze

Pieces of you

Pieces of me

The love still strong

But you just can’t see

What a power of transformation

What a power of pure ecstasy

Pieces of you

Pieces of me

My love

My pride

My one-time fair-weather friend

How could we let our love go

Our love was real

Our love was pure magic

But you chose to let it burn

So, let it fade away into the pieces that were once you and I

My mind is blank

One more to go

How could we let this go

Thought you were mine

I just couldn’t deal with the hype

On and on it seems to go, but you don’t know what you got ‘til it’s gone

I wish you knew how how much you hurt me so

No punching or hitting necessary to feel this pain

Pieces of you

Pieces of me

We shall fight on

Look to the sky

Don’t have to cry

Pieces of you

Pieces of me like fallen leaves in the autumn time

Pieces of you

Pieces of me

We shall be set free
