pieces
Cloe Beaudoin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Too late to tell you
And now all good things are lost with you
Somehow youre breathing in me
When youre the one who slipped away
Maybe because I took
Something that was not mine
And let the time
Do its work

And now whats left of me
Is pieces of you and I cant live with you gone
And theres this voice in my head
Telling me that youre still here with me
And now, its pieces of you that are pieces of me

Too late for forgiveness
This time, my hearts aching for you
And now, Im seeing you
Everywhere telling myself youre not there
Maybe because you left without saying goodbye
Let it go, cause Im too blame

And now whats left of me
Is pieces of you and I cant live with you gone
And theres this voice in my head
Telling me that youre still here with me
And now, its pieces of you that are pieces of me

My heart is gone with your last breath
What have I done?
It just seemed so easy
But now, Im trapped forever
Thinking of you haunting me, haunting me!

And now whats left of me
Is pieces of you and I cant live with you gone
And theres this voice in my head




Telling me that youre still here with me
And now, whats left of me is pieces just pieces
