Picking Up The Pieces

Do you think of her,

When you're with me?

Repeat the memories you made together,

Whose face do you see?

Do you wish I was a bit more like her?

Am I too loud?

I play the clown

To cover up all these doubts



Perfect heart

She's flawless

She's the other woman

Shining in her splendor

You were lost



Now she's gone

And I'm picking up the pieces

I watch you cry

But you don't see that I'm the one by your side

'Cause she's gone

In her shadow is it me you see?

'Cause all that's left is you and I

And I'm picking up the pieces she left behind



I found her photograph behind the TV

You looked so happy, are you missing the way it used to be?

Now I've changed this room around more often lately

It's clear that we and these 4 walls

Still known as hers and yours.



Perfect heart

She's flawless

She's the other woman

Shining in her splendor

You were lost



Now she's gone

And I'm picking up the pieces

I watch you cry

But you don't see that I'm the one by your side

'Cause she's gone

In her shadow is it me you see?

'Cause all that's left is you and I

And I'm picking up the pieces she left behind



Are we liars?

In denial?

Are we smoke without the fire?

Tell me please, is this worth it?

I deserve it



'Cause she's gone

And I'm picking up the pieces

I watch you cry

But you don't see that I'm the one by your side

'Cause she's gone

In her shadow is it me you see?

'Cause all that's left is you and I

And I'm picking up the pieces she left behind
