Pieces of String (bedroom tapes)

lyrics

Searching to find all the pieces of the puzzle
But you have lost your trestle board
Pieces of string all tied in a muddle
Paying for things you can't afford

He came down when the Moon wasn't home
A fire in his eyes and flesh on his bones
He knows his name, but he's quickly ageing
The memory remains, the details are fading
The life that he lived just yesterday
Slips away

Searching to find all the pieces of the puzzle
But you have lost your trestle board
Pieces of string all tied in a muddle
Paying for things you can't afford

He makes his house out of mud and stone
He makes his bed
He lays down and tries to erase the scene
Playing inside his head

He says
"Why do I feel so helpless down here?...I feel like a pig in chains"
He raises his head to the sky as he loudly exclaims
"Who am I, just a scribble on a page?"
"Who am I, the product of an age?
"Who am I" x4

Searching to find all the pieces of the puzzle
But you have lost your trestle board
Pieces of string all tied in a muddle
Paying for things you can't afford

Paying for things you can't afford

There is geometry in the humming of the strings. There is music in the spacing of the spheres
