Lyrics
Pick Up The Pieces
Words and music by Robert Marsh

VERSE ONE:
I?m looking out I see no sunlight before me
I?m like a man inside a prisoner?s cage
I can recall when you were hurting me gently
Now it?s time to turn the page
VERSE TWO:
You ran away before a word could be spoken
It?s plain to see the way you wanted to go
You know the rules of how a heart should be broken
I should be old enough to know
CHORUS:
How can I pick up the pieces without you
How can I pick up this world of mine
How can I pick up the pieces without you
Without you by my side
VERSE THREE:
I wait in hope for an answer to free me
Still I hunger for the truth to be told
A web of lies with no-one to believe me
Another story to be sold
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
