standing still but still moving
lying down but not resting
breathing air; suffocating
all the while, i'm debating
life was never what i thought,
never what i wanted it to be
had a plan, couldn't follow
had a dream, it was hollow
everywhere felt like nowhere
everything was so boring
life was never what i wanted
never what i thought
until you came and turned it all around
oh, you found a piece of me
it was missing; it was broken, you put soul into it
oh, you found the whole of me
i was empty, now i'm better; all my pieces back together.
yeah yeah yeah
restless ways for a living
fitting in cos i was driven
saying yes when i meant no
holding on; should've let go
i was scattered all around,
left shattered on the ground
you picked me up
all i wanted was a little bit of hope; couldn't find it
you showed me something that i never knew i owned
you put a light to it
oh, you found a piece of me
it was missing; it was broken, you put soul into it
oh, you found the whole of me
i was empty, now i'm better; cos you pieced me back together
what a life, always trying
what a life, live without you
don't leave me, i don't want
fall apart, i won't leave you
and it's cold and i'm blind
and i would, and it feels good
what a waste of my mind
everytime, all the time
oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
oh, you found the whole of me
it was missing; it was broken, you've put it back together
oh, you've found the whole of me
i was empty, now i'm better; cos you pieced me back together
