Piece By Piece

I can almost feel the pain, rushing in like tethered waves
Tearing me down to the floor
And even though it's killing me, for the moment it felt so good
To have your blood in my vein
But I don't need your sympathy, I just want you away from me
So turn and just let this go

You can't wait, it's just too bad it's gone now
And you didn't think we'd learn
You can stay here on this blanket of cold
And die on a bridge we burned... and we learn

You could always place the blame on someone you left alone
Helpless and fending their own
But you've never done anything to teach me how to think
And you expect me to know

You can't wait, it's just too bad it's gone now
And you didn't think we'd learn
You can stay here on this blanket of cold
And die on a bridge we burned

You get served more than words

It's all been written, why?
This book, an open lie
My mind is the page that is torn

You took it all, when you're confronted
You weep, stumble, keep running
You wait, but you cannot wait too long...

You can't wait, it's just too bad it's gone now
And you didn't think we'd learn
You can stay here on this blanket of cold
And die on the bridge we burned

You took it all away, when you're confronted
You cannot stay in your world
If you just think that I would wait around for more; that's absurd
