Pick Up the Pieces
Hear the doorknob twist
In the palm of your hand
Quivering now
Thoughts of where you’ve been
Darlin won’t lie
She’ll ignore me instead
Your lines tell the story
In books I’ve never read
Pick up my pieces
Or carry me home
Now’s the time to look back
Where our love’s gone
Don’t speak of the truths
Just lie next to me
I don’t care anymore
I don’t want to feel free
Morning won’t come
No matter how hard i try
To curse at the clouds
Rip the moon from the sky
The window will freeze
Before i get my way
So i lay here instead
With no words left to say
Pick up my pieces
Or carry me home
Nows the time to look back
At where our love’s gone
Don’t speak of the truths
Just lie next to me
I don’t care anymore
I don’t want to feel free
I wake before you
Birds chirp as to gloat
I’m shaking in pain
Trying to put on my coat
I miss the days
Not sure they exist
When you opened the door
Instead of making a fist
Pick up my pieces
Or carry me home
Nows the time to look back
At where our love’s gone
Don’t speak of the truths
Just lie next to me
I don’t care anymore
I don’t want to feel free
