pieces lyrics

From the moment that we met
My world was turned around, upside down
To some degree I still regret
My memory for keepin' you around

Girl I thought that you were mine
But my broken heart's been shattered
One too many times

And I don't want to see you anymore, I'm just not that strong
I love it when you're here but I'm better when you're gone
I'm certain that I've given and oh, how you can take
There's no use in you lookin', there's nothin' left for you to break
Baby, please release me, let my heart rest in pieces, in pieces

Someone let you down again
So you turn to me, your convenient friend
Oh, but I know what you're doin' and what you hope to find
I've seen it a thousand times

Oh, the fire we had before
Are now just bitter ashes
Left scattered on the floor

And I don't want to see you anymore, I'm just not that strong
I love it when you're here but I'm better when you're gone
I'm certain that I've given and oh, how you can take
There's no use in you lookin', there's nothin' left for you to break
Baby, please release me, let my heart rest in pieces, yeah, yeah

I don't want to see you anymore, I'm just not that strong
I love it when you're here baby, but I'm better when you're gone
I'm certain that I've given and oh, how you can take
There's no use in you lookin', there's nothin' left for you to break
Baby, please release me, we both know that you don't need me
Let my heart rest in pieces, in pieces, let it rest
