Picking Red Chestnuts - Lei Qiang

It's like you know-, I can't read your mind type shit I mean nah, nah, nah, bro Let's do it, 'cause that shit like you're onto something Sometimes it feel like we're just going through the motions Sometimes I wonder about our approaches Sometimes you don't say what you want the most Lie to me, sometimes Sometimes it feel like we couldn't be closer Sometimes the sex so good, swim the Atlantic Ocean Sometimes forever feel like thе only option But you leave me somеtimes Went out for a stroll, looking for the greener grass Couldn't let go, so here I come running back And I got twenty-twenty vision, way I see it, we could make it match We sometimes worry the feeling ain't coming back But that's only sometimes That's only sometimes Can't just be good times They're only sometimes Yelling with tears on your face Hoping that we make it through to old age But days that we fight leave more wounds There's nights that we both lie awake Know that's it's only sometimes Know that we bend but won't break 'Cause that's only sometimes That's only sometimes Can't just be good times They're only sometimes

Do you think of her when you're with me? Repeat the memories you made together, whose face do you see? Do you wish I was a bit more like her? Am I too loud? I play the clown to cover up all these doubts Perfect heart, she's flawless She's the other woman Shining in her splendor You were lost Now she's gone And I'm picking up the pieces I watch you cry, but you don't see that I'm the one by your side 'Cause she's gone In her shadow, is it me you see? 'Cause all that's left, is you and I And I'm picking up the pieces she left behind I found a photograph behind the TV You looked so happy, are you missing the way it used to be? And I have changed this room around more often lately It's clear that we, and these four walls Still know it's hers and yours Perfect heart, she's flawless She's the other woman Shining in her splendor You were lost Now, she's gone And I'm picking up the pieces I watch you cry, but you don't see that I'm the one by your side 'Cause she's gone In her shadow, is it me you see? 'Cause all that's left, is you and I And I'm picking up the pieces she left behind Are we liars in denial? Are we smoke without the fire? Tell me, please, is this worth it? I deserve it 'Cause she's gone And I'm picking up the pieces I watch you cry, but you don't see that I'm the one by your side 'Cause she's gone In her shadow, is it me you see? 'Cause all that's left, is you and I And I'm picking up the pieces she left behind (Picking up the pieces) Oh, I'm picking up the pieces A broken heart (picking up the pieces) Who will save them? Who will save them? Picking up the pieces Ooh, I'm picking up the pieces Somebody save me! Somebody save me! Oh-oh Ooh-ooh-ooh

Here comes the bride, and there goes the groom Looks like a hurricane went through this room Smells like a pool hall, where's my other shoe? And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you Looks like you spent the night in a trench And tell me, how long have you been combin' your hair with a wrench? The roses are dead and the violets are too And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you Well, I've told you before, I won't tell you again You don't defrost the icebox with a ball point pen This railroad apartment is held together with glue And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you Because I know I've been swindled I never bargained for this What's more, you never cared about me Why don't you get your own place So you can live like you do? And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you Take all your relatives and all of your shoes Believe me, I'll really swing when you're gone I'll be living on chicken and wine after we're through With someone I pick up after you With someone I pick up after you With someone I pick up after you With someone I pick up after you
