[Verse 1]
You're not running just enough of a wreck
To hold the hurt heart everybody expects
And I know you wrote a history of making a mess
Misunderstood's an understatement at best
[Verse 2]
How long, how long
Will you demand my sympathy?
We all know hurt
So why do you feel the need to
[Pre-Chorus]
Put on a pretty face, give them a pretty taste
No one's buying it anyway
[Chorus]
You're so tired trying to rewind
The mess you've made of your own mind
But the pieces won't pick up themselves, you know?
You can fight just like you've been taught
It won't undo the life you've got
Cause the pieces won't pick up themselves, you know
[Verse 1]
You're not running just enough of a wreck
To hold the hurt heart everybody expects
And I know you wrote a history of making a mess
Misunderstood's an understatement at best
[Verse 3]
You say you try, you're after something better
It doesn't show, you're still not put together
[Pre-Chorus]
Put on a pretty face, give them a pretty taste
No one's buying it anyway](7235296)
[Chorus]
You're so tired trying to rewind
The mess you've made of your own mind
But the pieces won't pick up themselves, you know
You can fight just like you've been taught
It won't undo the life you've got
Cause the pieces won't pick up themselves, you know
[Bridge]
Everybody knows liars never make it for long
I am getting close, I can see just what's going on
Everybody knows, everybody knows, (whoa)
I remember what you were before you gave it away
You've never been the type
To watch the pieces fall where they may
And now you've let it go
But I know you know, whoa
Now the pieces won't pick up themselves, you know
[Chorus]
You're so tired trying to rewind
The mess you've made of your own mind
But the pieces won't pick up themselves, you know
You can fight just like you've been taught
It won't undo the life you've got
Cause the pieces won't pick up themselves, you know
[Chorus]
You're so tired trying to rewind
The mess you've made of your own mind
But the pieces won't pick up themselves, you know
You can fight just like you've been taught
It won't undo the life you've got
Cause the pieces won't pick up themselves, you know
