Pick up the fragments and piece them together

Tell me do you like what you've found?

Are your thoughts like the earth spinning round?

Existence is pure pantomime

Why is life such a puzzle sometimes?



Trapped in a world I no longer feel part of

Each day is a thorn in my side

Though I've carried my cross - worn my heart on my sleeve

Still deep inside something has died.

If men have a sell-by-date I've just reached mine

Now we've come to the end of the line.

Why is life such a puzzle sometimes?



Well I just can't believe that it's happened again

Always knew that it would - just a matter of when

A lie was the last straw on this camels back

And just like Lot's wife I could never look back.

So maybe the reason I act so estranged

Is you still dream of him, it's you that has changed.



No method to madness - no reason to rhyme

Now we've come to the end of the line.
