Lyrics for Falling to Pieces

Back and forth, I sway with the wind Resolution slips away again Right through my fingers, back into my heart Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark Sometimes I think I'm blind Or I may be just paralyzed Because the plot thickens every day And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin' away But I know, there's a picture beneath Indecision clouds my vision No one listens Because I'm somewhere in between My love and my agony You see, I'm somewhere in between My life is falling to pieces Somebody put me together Layin' face down on the ground My fingers in my ears to block the sound My eyes shuttin' tight to avoid the sight Anticipating the end, losing the will to fight Droplets of yes and no In an ocean of maybe From the bottom, it looks like a steep incline From the top, another downhill slope of mine But I know, the equilibrium's there Indecision clouds my vision No one listens Because I'm somewhere in between My love and my agony You see, I'm somewhere in between My life is falling to pieces Somebody put me together Back and forth, I sway with the wind Resolution slips away again Right through my fingers, back into my heart Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark Sometimes I think I'm blind Or I may be just paralyzed Because the plot thickens every day And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin' away But I know, there's a picture beneath Indecision clouds my vision No one listens Because I'm somewhere in between My love, my agony You see, I'm somewhere in between My life is falling to pieces Somebody put me together Between, my love and my agony You see, I'm somewhere in between My life is falling to pieces Somebody put me together (between) Somebody put me together Somebody put me together (between) Whoa oh oh oh (my life is falling to pieces)
