Lyrics

Picking up pieces, talking loudly..
Picking up pieces, talking loudly..

Pick it all up now
Put it back in your mouth
Pick it all up now

Pick it all up now
Put it back in your mouth
Pick it all up now

And swallow..

Picking up pieces, talking loudly..
Picking up pieces, talking loudly..

You took away my red lips
And then cut them up in pieces

So now I can't kiss the moon
So now I can't kiss the moon goodnight
No longer fly
Through the clouds
No longer touch the stars…

Picking up pieces, talking loudly..
Picking up pieces, talking loudly..

I'm lying still
Waiting

Completely dried out
Longing
Longing
For the rain
To whip the roof

And make me
Defenceless…

You took my lips away
You took my red lips
You took my lips away
You took my soft, red lips…

Picking up pieces, talking loudly..
Picking up pieces, talking loudly..

Pick it all up now
Put it back in your mouth
Pick it all up now

Pick it all up now
Put it back in your mouth
Pick it all up now

And swallow..
