[song lyrics] Pieces of You

This is the most recent song I've written... and the last one I'll be posting about her (I've got a few more old ones that have nothing to do with her coming... and I've got a few more songs about her that I'm not posting... yet anyways)... she's a tired topic already, but an entire damn concept album worth of inspiration... and let's face it... the amnesia, and recovering from it, has been about one of the biggest life events to have ever befallen me... and the recovery was a huge surprise... (before that, I thought I was the most sane of all my friends... and I think most of them would have agreed)... anyways, I'm particularly delighted with how this one turned out because I'm finally getting back to the splatter-happy comedic tones that I really want to be known for.

Pieces of You

Memories come back in pieces
When they've been lost so many years
I never really knew that
I could cry so many tears
Until I found these pieces
Pieces
These lost pieces of you

I've got your black heart in a shoebox
Pale blue eyes in a mason jar
I haven't quite remembered
Where all the other keepsakes are
But they're just pieces
Pieces
They're pieces of you

I tried to rebuild
But made a huge fucking mess
Now there's a monster
That is hellbent on my death
Made of pieces
Pieces
A mess of pieces of you

Why did you have
To become a monster
That I had to slay
Why did there have
To be this fate
That we could not escape
Why did we have to make
All those awful mistakes
That we can't undo
And all that I have left now
Are pieces of you
Broken pieces of you

Considering all the awful things
That you've done and still do
I can't think of any better way
That I'd like to remember you
Than just some pieces
Pieces
Butchered pieces of you
Grilled up pieces of you
Delicious pieces of you
