Mae - In Pieces lyrics

We got acquainted on a warm summer's night Top floor of your apartment Is where we started clicking for the first time And our future it was so bright I was there to be a melody and under the impression That you would be my harmony, yeah Pretty soon we were dressed up in lights If you wanted centre stage I was there on your right I was singing on the grandstand Where I think we made our first plans To be a source of friction A clear contradiction This is where we discovered our dissonance And all these things I think about in pieces All these scenes I play again in my mind When were the two of us destined, oh, to come undone When we had just begun Well is it possible I got something wrong In the middle of a moment While we laboured over song While we toiled over every word Was it your voice you wanted heard? At the time I thought I tried To strip away some of my pride But I couldn't understand where you were coming from All these things you could explain in pieces All these things you could've said but never tried You were always there Waiting for us to come undone And now all that we've built , yes Everything we have came undone We always used to fight The record that we kept of wrongs and rights Would lock us there inside You turned and walked away And left me picking pieces off the ground In scattered disarray, yeah All these things I could explain in pieces All these things I'd want to say But how could I? I was always there Waiting for you to come undone And I knew you would I knew you would break some day And come unglued I knew you were waiting For the day that you'd leave us And be gone for good We always used to fight The record that we kept of wrongs and rights Would lock us there inside You turned and walked away And left me picking pieces off the ground And I am here to stay (Although in pieces yeah) I'll go pick up the pieces I'm waiting out the night For when we see the sun The work we've done will finally come to light And with the break of day We'll put the pieces back in place somehow Until we find out way (Although in pieces) I'll go pick up the pieces every time
