lyrics

I’m picking up the pieces of me
Scattered on the floor
First you flipped the table that night
Then you declared a war
I’ve been working on this puzzle
Since the day that I was born
Now I’m picking up the pieces again
And maybe I don’t want to anymore

First rebuild the outside
Then rebuild the core
First you’ll see nothing but the ocean
And then
You’ll start to see the shore
I’ve been rebuilding this puzzle
Over and over
The edges are all worn
I just can’t keep it together
Another day another storm

Some pieces of me
Exist only as memories
Some pieces of me
Are gone with the wind

Examining life’s contours
Well it can really make you think
How does it all fit together so nice
How is it all so in sync
I’ve been staring at this puzzle
For so long
I forgot to blink
So I take my eyes to the stars and
I wait for them to wink

Some pieces of me
Exist only as memories
Some pieces of me
Are gone with the wind

I’m picking up the pieces of me
Scattered on the floor
First you flipped the table that night
Then you declared a war

Some pieces of me
Exist only as memories
Some pieces of me
Are gone with the wind

about

Joe Dickinson Chicago, Illinois

Hi, I’m Joe Dickinson.

I'm a DIY singer/songwriter from Chicago, IL.

It's not easy, balancing the external demands of work/life with the internal demands of creativity, but I'm working toward a set of sustainable internal systems that will allow me to continue to write, record, and release songs. Hopefully for the rest of my life.

I appreciate you taking the time to listen.
