Lyrics
She left pieces of herself everywhere
Said she wanted it this way
She said she wanted it this way
So no one would forget her if they had a piece all their own
A piece they could keep
And she had so many to lose
Yeah, we all got so much to lose
We're all just pieces lost
We're all just bullet holes
I haven't slept since I met her
Haven't slept in years
Up at night recovering the pieces she's lost trying to make her whole again
Because all that's left is shadows and bones slipping through my hands
I haven't slept since I met you
Perhaps you wanted it this way
Maybe I wanted it this way
So that I could not forget you
Because you never stay
It had to be this way so I'd never forget you
As transparent as her teeth in the smile not for me and I'll take whatever is left
I will take whatever's left
