Song Lyrics

"Puzzles and Pieces"

by Deas Vail
Album: Birds

Everyone is careful
They're plotting their best escapes,
For fear of this whole place burning down
Puzzles and pieces
We're tangled in cages,
And they rattle and shake their bones
They grew from the earth I watched them bloom
They came up and grabbed me

So stand in a world that seems to be built on pillars and numbers,
Or dance with the hopes of falling in love
Before we have learned to love ourselves

Measures and objects
They fall in our view of worth,
And were whittled away by zeros won
Somebody save us
Nobody asks this,
But where does our heart live on'
In dreaming of dangers, dream of God
Maybe we've got it

So stand in a world that seems to be built on pillars and numbers,
Or dance with the hopes of falling in love
Before we have learned to'
Just stand in a world that seems to be built on pillars and numbers,
Or dance with the hopes of falling in love
But how can we love if we don't love ourselves'
Can't love ourselves
