Pieces (Hidden Track)

(album: Dancing With A Ghost - 2010)

There's a sunny place in southern California where I can go
When I need a break from the world, you know
That times will get harder
But I'll stay the same no matter the change

And when I arrive
I'll throw down my bags on the floor and I
I'll thank the world I've got these friends of mine
That sun that shines
These songs that get me high when I feel the need to sing

You gave up when you left me for the West
Does the coast and the ocean calm your stress?
Now you're gone, you left me in pieces
You gave up when you lost the words to say
When you find them come on back to me
Now you're gone, you left me in pieces

I've got those friends of mine
That help me get through all the shitty times
I drink myself into these lullabies
That hide my eyes
But help me to believe I'm not as stupid as you think

Cause I show my pride
In the form of these black and blue covered eyes
A sign that my love's to be realized
Simple to find
An easy way to hide yourself
You threw my back against the wall

You gave up when you left me for the West
Does the coast and the ocean calm your stress?
Now you're gone, you left me in pieces
You gave up when you lost the words to say
When you find them come on back to me
Now you're gone, you left me in pieces

I think we're stuck here in between
Misguided hearts that beat with apathy
Don't tell me that we've gone this far
Without thinking of fate

I think we're stuck here in between
Misguided hearts that beat with apathy
Don't tell me that we've gone this far
Without thinking of fate
…You left me in pieces

You gave up when you left me for the West
Does the coast and the ocean calm your stress?
Now you're gone, you left me in pieces
You gave up when you lost the words to say
When you find them come on back to me
Now you're gone, you left me in pieces

I think we're stuck here in between
Misguided hearts that beat with apathy
Don't tell me that we've gone this far
Without thinking of fate

I was down on my knees
You left me in pieces
