Piece of Me
Longing Echoes: Holding Onto Myself After You're Gone
Lyrics
I don't want a piece of me to leave me when your gone
I fear losing a part of myself when you depart
So baby don't pick up your box today
Requesting not to take your belongings today
Cause when your drawer is empty then my heart will be as well
If your presence is gone, my heart will feel empty
So baby don't pick up your box today
Reiterating the plea not to take your things
I get so helpless but you don't seem too bothered by it all
Expressing vulnerability, wondering if it affects you
So I've one question for you, are you moving on?
Pose a direct question about your intentions to move on
I wonder if you think of me from time to time as well
Contemplating if you also reminisce about our past
Cause baby you are all I'm thinking of
Acknowledging that thoughts revolve around you
And though I know it's better you're not sleeping in my bed
Recognizing it's healthier not to share a bed despite emotions
Without you I ain't sleeping much at all
Struggling to sleep without you
I get so jealous of how your life ain't turning upside down
Feeling envious that your life seems unaffected
I get so jealous of how you're smiling now
Envy at the sight of your current happiness
I found your acrylic splint under my table stand
Discovery of a personal item, triggering memories
And just like that a day has gone to waste
A day passing without meaningful progress
One or two bars later you are out my mind as planned
Trying to forget you but anticipates your return
But you'll be back and haunt me either way
Expecting your return to haunt thoughts and emotions
I get so jealous, getting high in my apartment all alone
Experiencing jealousy while alone and intoxicated
I get so jealous of how you're moving on
Jealousy regarding your ability to move on
