Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Too late, this is not the answer
I need to pack it in
I can't pull your heart together
With just my voice alone
A thousand shards of glass
I came to meet you in
You cut the piece out of me
[Verse 2]
And as you ripped it all apart
That's when I turned to watch you
And as the light in you went dark
I saw you turn to shadow
[Verse 3]
If you would salvage some part of you
That once we loved
But I'm losing this
And I'm losing you
[Verse 4]
Oh, I've gotta turn and run
From faces that you never see
Oh, I've gotta save my blood
From all that you've broken
Pack up these pieces of me
[Verse 5]
It's too late now to stop the process
This was your choice
You let it in
This double life you lead
Is eating you up from within
A thousand shards of glass
You pushed beneath my skin
And left me lying there to bleed
[Verse 6]
And as you showed me your scars
I only held you closer
But as the light in you went dark
I saw you turn over
I wanted always to be there for you
And close to you
But I'm losing this
And I'm losing you
[Verse 7]
Oh, I've gotta turn and run
From faces that you never see
Oh, I've gotta save my blood
From all that you've broken
Pack up these pieces of me
[Verse 8]
The broken pieces
Pack up these pieces of me
The broken pieces
Pack up these pieces
[Verse 9]
Maybe without me you'll return
To all the beauty I once knew
But if I stay I know
We will both be drowned by you
By your holding onto me
[Verse 10]
Oh, I've gotta turn and run
From faces that you never see
Oh, I've gotta save my blood
From all that you've broken
Pack up these pieces of me
[Verse 11]
The broken pieces
Pack up these pieces of me
The broken pieces
Pack up these pieces of me
