Icon for Hire

Pieces

You're not running just enough of a wreck

To hold the hurt heart everybody expects

And I know you wrote a history of making a mess

Misunderstood's an understatement at best

How long, how long will you demand my sympathy?

We all know hurt so why do you feel the need to

Put on a pretty face

Give them a pretty taste

No one's buying it anyway

You're so tired trying to rewind the mess

You've made of your own mind

Woah, but the pieces won't pick themselves up

You know

You can fight just like you've been taught

It won't undo the life you've got

Woah, cause the pieces won't pick themselves up

You know

You're not running just enough of a wreck

To hold the hurt heart everybody expects

And I know you wrote a history of making a mess, misunderstood's an understatement at best

You say you try, you're after something better

It doesn't show, you're still not put together

Put on a pretty face, give them a pretty taste

No one's buying it anyway

You're so tired trying to rewind the mess you've made of your own mind

Woah, but the pieces won't pick themselves up

You know

You can fight just like you've been taught

It won't undo the life you've got

Woah, cause the pieces won't pick themselves up

You know

Everybody knows liars never make it for long

I am getting close, I can see just what's going on

Everybody knows, everybody knows

Woah

I remember what you were before you gave it away

You've never been the type to watch the pieces fall where they may

And now you've let it go

But I know you know

Woah

But the pieces won't pick themselves up

You know

You're so tired trying to rewind the mess you've made of your own mind

Woah, but the pieces won't pick themselves up

You know

You can fight just like you've been taught

It won't undo the life you've got

Woah, cause the pieces won't pick themselves up

You know

You're so tired trying to rewind the mess you've made of your own mind

Woah, (Everybody knows)

But the pieces won't pick themselves up

You know

You can fight just like you've been taught

It won't undo the life you've got

Woah, (everybody knows)

Cause the pieces won't pick themselves up

You know
