  • Have you seen the little pieces of the people we have been?
    Little pieces blowing' gently on the wind
    They have flown down California
    They have landed in L.A.
    Little pieces slowly settling on the waves

    I'm one of a million pieces fallen on the ground
    It's one of the reasons when we say goodbye
    We'll still come around We will come around

    I have waited for tomorrow from December 'til today
    I have started loving sorrow along the way
    I am calling from some city
    And I won't be there too long
    I could wait and I could waste away
    But what comes back is I hear you say we're gone

    For all of the times that I go spinning up and down
    When all of the things have died between us
    Well, we'll still come around We will come around

    After I've been missing for a while
    And you hear that summer's song
    Haven't all the fading lines lingered on?

    What I know is: she's going
    When you know it, it's alright
    So you put yourself between you and your pride
    If you wait for what's coming
    And you listen to her lies,
    Then she'll say the things you need to hear
    And the only one who'll disappear is you

    And one of the million lies she said
    Is "All of the things you love are dead."
    But I've seen what she thinks is love
    And it leaves me laughing so we'll still come around Writer/s: ADAM FREDRIC DURITZ, CHARLES THOMAS GILLINGHAM, DANIEL JOHN VICKREY, DAVID A IMMERGLUCK, DAVID LYNN BRYSON, JAMES BOGIOS, MILLARD POWERS
