Piece by Piece, you're pulling me down, down, down
You're on your knees waiting for the lights to go out
Your hopes and dreams have all been cast away
Addictions lead so many friends astray
Give me some breathing space
Just a second to catch my breathe
Relax and check reality out for its self
Release your hands from around my neck
Release me from the shackles keeping me at bay
Piece by Piece, you're pulling me down, down, down
You're on your knees waiting for the lights to go out
Your hopes and dreams have all been cast away
Addictions lead so many friends astray
Give me some breathing space
Just a second to catch my breathe
Relax and check reality out for its self
Release your hands from around my neck
Release yourself because it seems like you have given up
Release yourself 'cause it seems like you've given up
Piece by Piece, you're pulling me down, down, down
You're on your knees waiting for the lights to go out
Your hopes and dreams have all been cast away
Addictions lead so many friends astray
