Pieces of Me, Pieces of You

I'm feeling...restless, so I thought I'd try something a little new tonight. I took some lyrics from quite a few different songs and blended them all together. Anyway, my first attempt at anything like this, but it was fun.

The words are taken from various songs in various eras. You might even recognize some of them...

Pieces of Me, Pieces of You

One of these days the sky's gonna break

And everything will escape

And I'll know

I’ll know

Seems that I have been held

In some dreaming state

I twist in the waking world

Never quite awake

Not awake

I learned to live half alive

River in flames, cities on fire

Shut your eyes

Shut your eyes

If I could start again, a million miles away

I would keep myself

I would find a way

Somehow, someway

I lay down, on the cold, cold ground

A million miles away

And I pray

I pray

I’m so cold, I’m so cold, I’m so cold

I’m so cold, I’m so cold, I’m so cold

Yeah

You bleed just to know you’re alive

Forfeit all my lives to get just one right

Just one

Just one right

No more waking up to innocence

Say hello to hesitance

To everyone I meet

Everyone I meet

This silence is golden

I used to think that silence was golden

Silence is golden

I used to think that silence was golden

But I need to hear some sounds

That recognize the pain in me, yeah

The pain in me

But these are only walls that hold me here

I have nothing left to fear

I’ve got the right to disappear

I’ve got the right to disappear
