Lyrics

Foolish pride can reap destruction
A feeling lost through the mind
I let my pride stand in between us
Never knowing that I
Had build wall protecting a need inside me
I was a fool thinking only of me
Not seeing nothing more than
My precious pride and ego
Now all that's left for me
[Chorus] X2
Pieces of a photograph
I tore in half
Pieces of love
Pieces of the past
Time is made with face a shadow
And like a thief in the night
It comes to call slowly creeping
It disappears in the light
But I won't ever break that the chain around me
I'll find away to shine off the things that bind me
Memories still spinning their webs upon me
But now I'm left alone
[Chorus] X2
Pieces of a photograph
I tore in half
Pieces of love
Pieces of the past
[Chorus Outro] X4
Pieces of a photograph
I tore in half
Pieces of love
Pieces of the past
