Pieces
BriBry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the bed felt so big that I got lost
And no one heard my cry
I woke up hugging air
My father walked in thinking his son, was still in love with life
'Cause no one knows I'm in pieces
I've enough weaknesses without a broken heart
'Cause self pity is just bound to get me nowhere
And that's not where I'll find you
Tonight I'll feel assured
In the company of friends and I'll proclaim:
"Who needs love anyway?"
But I'll wake up in a war
In a trench that's so deep, so terrifying
Only love can save the day
'Cause no one knows I'm in pieces
I've enough weaknesses without a broken heart
But I can't lie around
'Cause self pity is just bound to get me nowhere
And that's not where I'll find you
The lyrics to BriBry's song "Pieces" explore the emotional turmoil of a person dealing with heartbreak and feeling lost. The singer describes how they feel alone and lost as they try to deal with the pain of a broken heart. The chorus of the song showcases how the singer is struggling to come to terms with their emotional state but is determined not to wallow in self-pity.
The first verse describes the physical emptiness the singer feels as they try to cope with the pain of losing someone they loved. They are grappling with feelings of isolation and abandonment, not just from their former partner but also from those around them who don't understand what they are going through. The second verse hints at the cyclical nature of the singer's despair. They might try to convince themselves that they don't need love and that they can find happiness without it, but they know deep down that they will always crave the connection only love can provide.
Throughout the song, the singer shows remarkable vulnerability and honesty as they deal with their emotions. They acknowledge that they have other flaws and weaknesses, but the pain of heartbreak is still affecting them deeply. The lyrics are introspective and deeply personal, which makes them easy to relate to for anyone who has experienced heartbreak.

Last night I slept alone
I spent the night by myself
And the bed felt so big that I got lost
The bed felt too big because I was alone
And no one heard my cry
I was sad and no one noticed
I woke up hugging air
I woke up alone, without anyone to hold onto
My father walked in thinking his son, was still in love with life
My dad assumed I was doing well even though I was struggling
'Cause no one knows I'm in pieces
I am broken inside but nobody knows it
I've enough weaknesses without a broken heart
I already have plenty of problems and don't need a broken heart
But I can't lie around
I can't let myself waste away
'Cause self pity is just bound to get me nowhere
Feeling sorry for myself won't help me
And that's not where I'll find you
I won't find happiness by feeling sorry for myself
Tonight I'll feel assured
Tonight I'll feel confident
In the company of friends and I'll proclaim: 'Who needs love anyway?'
When I'm with my friends I'll say I don't need love
But I'll wake up in a war
But in the morning, I'll wake up to another struggle
In a trench that's so deep, so terrifying
Something that feels impossible to overcome
Only love can save the day
Only love can help me through
