  • For a long long time
    I've been in pieces
    In the corner of a room
    In an endless afternoon

    For a long long time
    I've been in pieces
    For a long long time
    I've been in pieces
    I've been in pieces
    I've been in pieces

    There is a way down
    That I wish I had not found
    You just split yourself in two
    One for them and one for you
    One for them and one for you

    For a long long time
    I've been in pieces
    All the words I mean to say
    They never come out the right way
    And there are things that I could tell you
    But they'll never come out the right way
    And there are sides that I could show you
    But they'll never come out the right way
    Never come out the right way
    Never come out the right way
    Never come out the right way
    Cause I've been in pieces
    I've been in pieces
    I've been in pieces
    I've been in pieces
    I've been in pieces
    I've been in pieces Writer/s: MICHAEL O'BRIEN
