In Pieces

I know I'm breaking every rule, but
 I can't keep skipping through this life
 You lay there so quietly, and I know you won't listen, but I'll try
 'Cause people come and people go
 Riding high, escape the low
 Running away when it ain't so easy
 So before you leave in the morning, I just have to know
 That even though this won't last forever
 And our lives are only passing through
 Could I be more than another person off your list to do?
 Or can we only love, only love, only love in pieces?
 Tired of closing each chapter all on my own
 There may be two or three of you and me
 But a warm bed doesn't mean I'm not alone
 I'm not alone, no
 We do a dance, we do it well
 Close enough, but never tell anything
 That's gonna be misleading
 So before we act like it's nothing, I just have to know
 That even though this won't last forever
 And our lives are only passing through
 Could I be more than another person off your list to do?
 Or must we only love, only love, only love in pieces?
 Can we only love, only love, only love in pieces?
 I'm not saying I'm incomplete, not desperately asking why
 But how are we constantly just chasing a momentary high
 We all need a connection, and I bet if you let me right in
 You'd see more than pieces, all these leases for our lives, oh
 (Even though this won't last forever)
 (And our lives are only passing through) passing through
 I could be more than another person off your list to do
 But we only love, only love, only love in pieces
 Can we only love, only love, only love in pieces?
 I'm worth more than pieces
 Oh, oh-oh, no, you never know
 Oh, oh-oh, no, you never know
 Oh, oh-oh, no, you never know
 Oh, oh-oh, no
