When I began to love you
I left a piece of me
In you, around you
There for you to see
Every time I held you
I left a piece of me
Happened so often
I started losing me
Every time you hurt me
I left a piece of me
In those broken words
In a place, too dark to be
Every time you broke me
I lost a piece of me
Crumbled, wrinkled, torn
Nowhere to be seen
But now that you've left me
I've lost the pieces of me
You tore them apart
But they are no longer me
So now that you left me
I grow back the pieces of me
But they're new ones
No traces of the girl I used to be
And now that you've left me
I've left you too
So hold on to those pieces
I've held on to you too
