Moving Parts Lyrics

Living's like a jigsaw
And the farther in you go
If you're missing pieces
Never really know
When you're ticking like a timepiece
On which you can rely
Wonder why you wind it
When you're running out of time

Sometimes there's a danger of choking on the parts
No one gave a warning to the breaking of your heart
Pick up all the pieces and go back to the start
Never losing, only using all your moving parts
All your moving parts

Living's supposed to kill you
But it shouldn't feel like dying
Loving's supposed to fill you
But it spills you like your wine
And all the paper people
Wandering about
Wondering who made them
And who's gonna cut them out

Sometimes there's a danger of choking on the parts
No one gave a warning to the breaking of your heart
Pick up all the pieces and go back to the start
Never losing, only using all your moving parts
All your moving parts

And even in the morning
When the sun's behind the clouds
In the state you're born in
In the state that you're in now
Even if the roof is leaking
It's still above your head
Just remember two words that the two birds never said

Sometimes there's a danger of choking on the parts
No one gave a warning to the breaking of your heart
Pick up all the pieces and go back to the start
Never losing, only using all your moving parts
All your moving parts
