I'm not knocking your want   to carry that home      took it with you   when you moved and got it broke      found the pieces   we counted them all alone      didn't add up   forgot to carry a zero      I can't be your   apologist very long      I'm surprised that   you'd want to carry that on      count your blemishes   you can't   they're all gone      I can't see your response   putting them back on      like they're waiting for your guard to fall   so they can see it all and you're so   occupied with what other persons are   occupied with   and vice versa      and you've become   what you thought was dumb   a fraction of the sum      yeah, you've become   yeah, you have become      a fraction of the sum   the middle and the front      and now it's coming back   hasn't it come too far?      I was trying to help but I guess   I pushed too hard      now we can't even touch it   afraid it'll fall apart
