Patchwork Staccato

Cause every little piece I weave of me and you together
Don’t you see we can’t go on forever
So I caught the tie and finally sever
Into little bits, a rainbow raining down

So you see the way we used to be
Is gone, the words and words would pile on and on
And break the frayed end pieces of a time
That we tried, it’s funny and it’s sad I guess

Tick tock tick tock ring us, round us
Ding dong ding dong why not play a game?
Tick tock tick tock ring me, leave me
Ding dong ding dong well see ya round
Fraying away, hear it trying to say

Couldn’t you please oh please be gone out of my life
But every day continues on the same as if you
Won’t oh won’t be gone although I try
Too small to care but still not fair
Oh please oh please just throw it all away
But here we go alone trying to keep from thinking
On and on and fall for you again
Oh will the pain be here to stay?

Before, I felt afraid but now it’s all the same
A screen and me why wont it ever change
Without a thing I’m dying from the boring
Enduring days I thought I’d never know

Flick tap flick tap, sweep through phone and
Swipe tap swipe tap, A R T
Flick tap flick tap, unlock, can’t talk
Swipe swipe swipe swipe, just end it all
Slipping away, hear it trying to say

Couldn’t you please oh please be gone out of my life
But every day continues on the same because you
Won’t oh won’t be gone, yet still I try
How sad I’ll be but fine with me
Oh please oh please just throw it all away
But here we go alone, trying to keep from thinking
On and on and fall for you again
Oh will the pain be here to stay?

Ahem ahem
Do, do, do - La, la, la
I’m begging

I’m begging, please oh please be gone out of my life
But every day continues on the same because you
Won’t oh won’t be gone although I try
How sad I’ll be but fine with me
Oh please oh please, why can’t I throw away?
You didn’t know? Well if you really didn’t know
Then oh I see, there never was a “we”
The only one I loved was me
Tick tock tick tock
Ding dong ding dong

Ahem, Do do do

Cause every little piece I weave of me and you together
Don’t you see we can’t go on forever
So I caught the tie but can I sever
Easily the end? And will I ever smile again?
