Piece's We Ain't Got Back

Lyrics

Title: “Pieces We Ain’t Got Back”
(Intro)

Yeah… (mm)
Heart heavy, love messy…
(uh, uh)

(Chorus)

You tell me change, but I been tryna heal (tryna heal)
You gave your best to them, but nothin’ here feel real (no, no)
You said you done switchin’ up for people who don’t care (don’t care)
But why it feel like I’m the one you won’t repair? (why me?)
We both got scars from hearts we gave away (gave away)
To ones who didn’t even deserve a place (nah)
Now we standin’ here with pieces we can’t replace (can’t replace)
Tryna love through all the damage and the pain (uh)

(Verse 1)

You told me “be better,” I’m tryin’, don’t you see? (don’t you see?)
But every time I move, you act like it ain’t me (nah)
I ain’t them dudes that left you in the rain (left you cold)
I’m fightin’ demons, tryna love you through the pain (through the pain)
You said you changed for people who ain’t stay (why?)
Gave ‘em your soul, they threw it all away (damn)
Now you swear you never do that again (never again)
But I’m the one who gotta prove I ain’t the same (I ain’t)

(Pre-Chorus)

I know I got flaws, I ain’t perfect at all (at all)
But I’m here, I ain’t runnin’ when you call (I won’t run)
Just wish you’d see me different from your past (your past)
Instead of treatin’ me like I won’t last (no…)

(Chorus)

You tell me change, but I been tryna heal (tryna heal)
You gave your best to them, but nothin’ here feel real (no, no)
You said you done switchin’ up for people who don’t care (don’t care)
But why it feel like I’m the one you won’t repair? (why me?)
We both got scars from hearts we gave away (gave away)
To ones who didn’t even deserve a place (nah)
Now we standin’ here with pieces we can’t replace (can’t replace)
Tryna love through all the damage and the pain (uh)

(Verse 2)

I see it in your eyes, you scared to fall again (fall again)
Too many nights alone, ain’t trustin’ no one then (no one)
I been through it too, got wounds that never close (never close)
Gave my heart away to people turned to ghosts (ghosts)
Now we both guarded, love feel like war (like war)
Buildin’ walls but we still want more (more)
You say “don’t hurt me,” I’m sayin’ the same (same)
But we both bleedin’, just hidin’ the pain (yeah)

(Bridge)

What if we stop runnin’ from what we could be? (what we could be)
What if your past ain’t gotta define me? (define me)
I ain’t askin’ you to give what you ain’t got (nah)
Just don’t punish me for battles that I fought (uh)
(Breakdown)
We both lost pieces… (yeah)
To people who ain’t even worth keepin’ (nah)
Now we holdin’ what’s left…
Tryna make it mean somethin’ (mean somethin’)

(Chorus – Soft / Outro)

You tell me change, but I been tryna heal (I been tryin’)
You gave your best away, now you don’t wanna feel (I know…)
Said you done givin’ love to those who never care (never again)
But I’m right here, wish you’d meet me halfway there (meet me there…)
We both got scars from hearts we gave away (gave away)
To ones who didn’t even deserve a place (nah)
Now we standin’ here with pieces we can’t replace…
Tryna love… through all the pain… (yeah… uh)

(Outro)

Broken hearts still beatin’…
Maybe we just need time…
