One Hundred Pieces

Pull up the dirt, making a bed for the roots

Put in the work, flowers around, bound to bloom

And you, you were a gracious sun

You, you grew a garden strong

I thought you were gone

Love, hate, loss, remember

(When will you get out of me)

Nothing lasts forever

(I can still see your face so clearly)

Hope, joy, fear, remember

(When will you get out of me)

Nothing hurts forever

Good, bad, worse, remember

Nothing lasts forever

Looks, lust, tears, remember

Nothing hurts forever

Change, words, things, remember

Nothing lasts forever

Thoughts, life, death, remember

Nothing hurts forever

Breath, blood, bone, remember

Nothing lasts forever

Now, here, this remember

Nothing hurts forever

People would stop, looking at what, what we grew

They all wanna know, wanna know what, what we knew

And then, the summer had lost it’s love

You went, petals fell one by one

And I still pick them up
