Rest in Pieces

At the time you know you never told me you loved me.
Here I am sitting in bed
Arranging the pieces of a broken heart
Nursing cold coffee and a cigarette
Wondering if youve forgotten me yet.
At the time you know you never told me you loved me.
The love story I wrote for us
You ripped it in half and screwed it up
Im starting to think none of it was true
Especially the parts that belonged to you.
Cos at the time you know you never told me you loved me.
You said when we met at sweet sixteen
You couldnt say the word love: it was such a clich
I thought for a while that you were gay
Even though Id taken your cherry away
But at the time you know you never told me you loved me.
Then I thought it made you seem deep
Childhood trauma has made you a freak
To everyone else you were an IT geek
But I knew what we had was so unique.
At the time you know you never told me you loved me.
Then you got clever went to uni
Dropped computers for philosophy
With your new friends you were embarrassed of me
I wasnt intellectual enough you see
At the time you know you never told me you loved me.
Really at the time I must have been nuts
For not realising you hated my guts
You were too stuck up to tell me so
To condescend to explain yourself
At the time you know you never told me you loved me.
Missing you to pieces
Where are the pieces that I miss?
Its like a puzzle from a charity shop:
Half the pieces are already lost!
At the time you know you never told me you loved me.
You hated me analysing my feelings
Emotions you said were just chemical secretions
Not much more than going to the loo
Still how I hope for an answer from you.
The bit that spurs on my leaping heart
The space I chew on in my head
Drinks in my spleen and leaves me dry
Stops me from leaving our love for dead.
On the day of judgement our souls will meet
And all half told stories will be complete
Till then I dont have words enough
To do you the justice of a final swan song
So my darling I leave you to rest in pieces
(Repeat and Fade)

| You have a knack of being slightly humorous in even your emotional and dark writes. Yet you still pull off a deep and powerful sense of feeling. You are a unique writer. Very Nice Indeed. |
