Picking Up The Pieces

My dear friend Addini asked me, "Why do guys like those bitchy girls?". I have to agree with her on this. But it works both ways. Girls like bad guys too.

Those who ignore, those who give commands, having demands every too often & well.. you know the type. And we, who are "the friend" or the "insignificant other" who is a normal human being, has always been there when needed, who acknowledge their needs, a good child to our parents, and I guess you could say well mannered - are being ignored.

We are The Invisibles.


Do you think of her?
When you're with me?
Repeat the memories you made together
Whose face do you see?
Do you wish I was a bit more like her?
Am I too loud?
I play the clown
To cover up all these doubts

Perfect heart
She's flawless
She's the other woman
Shining in her splendor
You were lost

[Chorus]
Now she's gone
And I'm picking up the pieces
I watch you cry
But you don't see that I'm the one by your side
'Cause she's gone
In her shadow is it me you see?
'Cause all that's left is you and I
And I'm picking up the pieces she left behind

I found a photograph behind the TV
You look so happy are you missing the way it used to be?
And I have changed this room around more often lately
It's clear that we
And these four walls
Still known as hers and yours.

Perfect part
She's flawless
She's the other woman
Shining in her splendor
You were lost

[Chorus]
Now she's gone
And I'm picking up the pieces
I watch you cry
But you don't see that I'm the one by your side
'Cause she's gone
In her shadow is it me you see?
'Cause all that's left is you and I
And I'm picking up the pieces she left behind

Are we liars in denial?
Are we smoke without the fire?
Tell me please is this worth it?
I deserve it

[Chorus]
'Cause she's gone
And I'm picking up the pieces
I watch you cry
But you don't see that I'm the one by your side
'Cause she's gone
In her shadow is it me you see?
'Cause all that's left is you and I
And I'm picking up the pieces
She left behind

Ooh, I'm picking up the pieces
Of a broken heart
Who will save them?
Who will save them?
I'm picking up the pieces
Ooh, I'm picking up the pieces
Somebody save me
Somebody save me
Oh, oh, ooh, ooh.
