A PIECE OF MY MIND

(CHORUS)
A piece of my mind, that's what I ought to give her.
A piece of my mind is all she?s left behind.
A shadow of love is my souvenir of her heart,
And all that she deserves is a piece of my mind.

Photographs of a couple lying littered on the floor,
A man is crying with his head in his hands on a bed near an open door.
That solitary light bulb dimly coats his mood in gloom,
As he gets it through that thick skull of his that he?s alone for good in that stinkin' room.

(CHORUS)

A mind soaked in memories melting from the pain,
Of seeing each other after all these years and starting all over again.
And, Lord, that trust I had in her could survive a hurricane.
My mind is starting to feel the pressure and I?m collapsing again from the strain.

(solo section)

Still making all the parties and putting up a front,
I see her making small talk, she looks so elegant.
I?m not the first to be exploited and it looks like I'm not the last.
She's hanging on a new man's arm, but soon he'll be in her past.

(CHORUS)
And all that she deserves is a piece of my mind.
