an ode to lost jigsaw pieces

if this is a siege

i'll wait this out

i'll wait this out

i'll wait this out

if this is a siege

i'll wait this out

i'll wait this out

but i'm full of doubt

i awoke with a face like a crumpled plastic bag in a puddle

when everyone in this town is a bag for life

he said my life is a total mess

it's 8pm and i'm not even dressed

and oh how i miss your prosecco-glazed lips

i miss them like the majority of modern mainstream music misses

an original metaphor for missing someone

i was so scared of confronting the world alone

fear put me in a headlock and dragged me back from the unknown

so if this is a siege

i'll wait this out

i'll wait this out

but i'm full of doubt

if this is a siege

i'll wait this out

i'll wait this out

but i'm full of doubt

i tried to defend our castle walls

but the attack came from within the halls

they say that time heals so

i'll wait this out

i'll wait this out

but i'm full of doubt

i'll wait this out

i'll wait this out

i'll wait this out

i'll wait this out

i'll wait this out

i'll wait this out

i may backtrack on these words one day

i may orphan what i'm about to say

but in my chest there's a thundering pain

it feels like god's in there

having a migraine

and this is tough

man

i've lost more pieces of my jigsaw

it don't seem worth making now

nan

they say you've gotta stay busy

i'll keep keep keep my mind occupied on the here and now

'cause you're not with me

but that's okay

we'll cope somehow

we all cope somehow

we'll cope somehow

we'll cope somehow

we all cope somehow

we'll cope somehow!

we all cope somehow!
