Break off a little piece of happiness
No body gets hurt more or less
Whatever it takes to get you through
The night is gonna have to do

Under the weight of daily bread
You'd rather wake to cake instead
Would you believe a photograph
Was all it took and all that's left
Of missing pieces

I throw myself in the river
I need to wash my head and float away
'Cause I know that I'll be delivered
Everything cast adrift
Come what may

I'm fed up with the pace of saving face
I'm squeezing what I can't replace
Fiddled with the fire 'til I got burned
With all I've lost you'd think I'd learned
By missing pieces

I throw myself in the river
I need to wash my head and float away
'Cause I know that I'll be delivered
Everything cast adrift
Come what may

I throw myself in the river
I need to wash my head and float away
'Cause I know that I'll be delivered
Everything cast adrift
Come what may

I gotta throw myself in the river
I need to wash my head and float away
Because they told me that I'll be delivered
Everything cast adrift
Come what may
