C                                      G
A man's too keen to sell what I don't need
The rain, it falls down up off the street
So many people, how could they all exist?
It gets me thinking, but I shouldn't think like this
I'm in danger of getting so lost
But then again, is that part of the plot?
So many people, whose problems I can't read
It gets me thinking, do they question the same thing?

Chorus:
       F                   C                 G
'Cause I can't take it all in all at the same time, time, time
F                 C                    G
It comes like a flood that swallows you alive, alive, alive
     Am              G/B
But suddenly, it'll cut you free
     C                      D
And point you to an empty space
          Am                   G/B
'Cause my everything's just a puzzle piece
           C                   D                   G
Of what is actually happening, actually happening here

This woman here has sadness in her eyes
They pull me in, but I can't see inside
She has a life she leads, but it's nothing to do with me
So how can I understand what I can't even see?

Chorus:
'Cause I can't take it all in all at the same time, time, time
It comes like a flood that swallows you alive, alive, alive
Suddenly, it'll cut you free
And point you to an empty space
'Cause my everything's just a puzzle piece
Of what is actually happening, actually happening here

'Cause I can't take it all in all at the same time, time, time
It comes like a flood that swallows you alive, alive
But suddenly, it'll cut you free
And point you to an empty space
'Cause my everything's just a puzzle piece
Of what is actually happening, actually happening here

These thoughts will weigh me down 'til I can't breathe
I'll slot myself back in the puzzle, where I should be
Where I should be
