Pieces
PRIME Sth Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Picking up the pieces
Of what was left behind
And I try to find a reason
Why I do this all the time
Maybe I'm just blind

She builds me up
She breaks me down
And it keeps me hanging on
She takes me in
Then throws me out
And it leaves me so undone
I'll be here waiting

Picking up the pieces
I got up and tried again
And I know there is no reason to look back
To go through all this again
Maybe I'm insane

She builds me up
She breaks me down
And it keeps me hanging on
She takes me in
Then throws me out
And it leaves me so undone
I'll be here waiting





For another beating

The chorus of the song talks about the cycle of being built up and then torn down by the person they're involved with, but regardless of the hurt they still wait for them to come back. The second verse shows the singer trying to move on from the pain of the past, acknowledging that there's no reason to look back and repeat the same mistakes, but still questioning their own sanity for being drawn back in.


Overall, "Pieces" is a powerful song about the struggle to break free from a toxic relationship and the difficulty of letting go even when you know it's not good for you.
