lyrics

HIM:
I lost her on the day
That Rik Mayall died,
At the airport bar,
Determined
Not to cry.

Suddenly strangers,
With not a piece that I could keep
Suddenly strangers
Not a piece that feels complete.

now you’re no one
To me at all
It’s all in pieces,
Leave it,
Where it falls
You’ll have no one
Inside this blue world.

it’s hard to accept
I won’t wake to your touch
But I couldn’t stand to be round someone
Who hurts me so much.

Suddenly strangers
With not a piece that I could trust
Suddenly strangers
With not a piece that feels like us.

Where will you turn
When you’re out of control
Who’ll be the one that knows you?
I can’t beg or leave
But it hurts when I breathe,
I can’t be the one that holds you.

Cos now you’re no one
To me at all
It’s all in pieces, leave it
Where it falls
You’ll have no one
Inside this blue world.
