Piece of Pie Lyrics
Stone Temple Pilots
I broke the breadline
Nobody knows
I walked the frontline
Still got far to go
I mixed the water
I drank the water
I broke the breadline
Don't wanna know
It's staring me down
Wearing a crown of apathy
I'm standing around
Dressed like a clown
Don't know my name
You know where to find me
I killed the manchild
I'll fast alone
I had the midwife
Naked and alone
I mixed the water
I drank the water
I killed the brainchild
I'll fast alone
It's staring me down
Wearing a crown of apathy
I'm standing around
Dressed like a clown
Don't know my name
You know where to find me
Don't wanna let me be a man
Don't wanna lead me to your home
It's staring me down
Wearing a crown of apathy
I'm standing around
Dressed like a clown
Don't know my name
You know where to find me
I killed the manchild
I had the midwife
I drank the water
I stand alone
I broke the breadline
I walked the frontline
Don't know my name
You know where to find me
I killed the manchild
I had the midwife
I drank the water
I stand alone
I broke the breadline
I walked the frontline
Don't know my name
You know where to find me
Don't wanna let me be a man
Don't wanna lead me to your home
Don't wanna let me be a man
Don't wanna lead me to your home
Nobody knows
I walked the frontline
Still got far to go
I mixed the water
I drank the water
I broke the breadline
Don't wanna know
It's staring me down
Wearing a crown of apathy
I'm standing around
Dressed like a clown
Don't know my name
You know where to find me
I killed the manchild
I'll fast alone
I had the midwife
Naked and alone
I mixed the water
I drank the water
I killed the brainchild
I'll fast alone
It's staring me down
Wearing a crown of apathy
I'm standing around
Dressed like a clown
Don't know my name
You know where to find me
Don't wanna let me be a man
Don't wanna lead me to your home
It's staring me down
Wearing a crown of apathy
I'm standing around
Dressed like a clown
Don't know my name
You know where to find me
I killed the manchild
I had the midwife
I drank the water
I stand alone
I broke the breadline
I walked the frontline
Don't know my name
You know where to find me
I killed the manchild
I had the midwife
I drank the water
I stand alone
I broke the breadline
I walked the frontline
Don't know my name
You know where to find me
Don't wanna let me be a man
Don't wanna lead me to your home
Don't wanna let me be a man
Don't wanna lead me to your home
