[Intro]
Ooh
[Chorus]
Pieces, pieces of a man, now
Oh, that's all that's left, girl, that's all I am
With that invisible knife
You cut me clean in two
I was shocked when you
When you said that we were through
What did I do wrong, baby yeah, ooh
[Verse 1]
I can feel my heart coming down and fall
Just like Humpty Dumpty, off the wall
You left me in the shadows of yesterday
I'm a man that used to be
Oh, now I'm left, now I'm left, now I'm left with
[Chorus]
Pieces, pieces of a man, now
Removed from reality
Stripped, stripped of my sanity
I was struck right down
By the cold heart, look, you were
Just likе a broken glass
Scattered all ovеr the floor
To be useful no more
Say it again, y'all
[Verse 2]
We made such beautiful future plans
Fate moved in with a ugly hand and crushed them
Oh, and there I stood
Robbed of my manlihood
Now, now I'm left, now I'm left, now I'm left with pieces
[Verse 3]
Oh, baby
When you said you loved me
Were you acting out of place?
Were they someone else's lines
That you thought you had to say?
[Chorus]
Pieces of a man, now
Scattered through the wind like dust
No one to believe in now
Ah, no one to deceive me now
I have no one to trust, baby
[Verse 4]
Oh, like a jigsaw puzzle with one lost part
I'm left without a heart
The one who worshipped me
Oh, destroyed me
Oh, how could that be, baby, baby, baby
[Outro]
Now I'm left with pieces
Pieces of a man, now
Removed from reality
Stripped of my sanity
Now I'm left with pieces
Pieces of a man, now
No one to believe in, now
No one to deceive me, now
Now I'm left with pieces
Pieces of a man, now
Left with no one to...
