Pieces

You've come to me an open book you say

Still those dog eared pages get in the way

All those slings and arrows

I never pointed my dear

Leave me shoring the dam

And soothing the beast of your wild frontier

Pieces of people and shapes of their hearts

Layers of loving you've worn from the start

Footsteps before me that carved who you are

Echoes of someone you wear as a scar

You're in pieces

Pieces

You're in pieces baby

Under the rug buried in the dust

Hides a little boy who cannot trust

With your bow and arrow

Ready and pointed my dear

Leave me lost in a harbor

Soothing your ghosts til they disappear

Pieces of people and shapes of their hearts

Layers of loving you've worn from the start

Footsteps before me that carved who you are

Echoes of someone you wear as a scar

You're in pieces

Pieces

You're in pieces baby
