Lyrics
Underneath my skin again
Just below my innocence
I never was so hesitant
Let's get down to the heart of it.
(I was) Propped up by Pride
(I was swaying) Left right, from dark to light
(Still staying) Punch drunk on the inside
Count to ten I'd fallen again and I am finally broken
I used to live without a care
Throwing punches in the air
Everyone would stop and stare
Foolishness was my affair
I never wanted to give in...
Instead I'd wallow, afraid of missing fun
Now I am wishing...
That I could swallow the anger of my tongue
So I will listen...
And yes I'll follow your mission of love
No more sorrow oh no....
Put me together....(Piece by piece)
Put me together....(Brick by brick)
Put me together....(Such a sweet release)
Put me together....(Cause I'm just so sick)
