"Adam" lyrics

Adam's got a bag that's full of porcelain
It's heavy when he pulls it up the stairs
He always says he's tired and of course he is
It must be hard to bring it everywhere

It's not fair

One night we sat together in the living room
And I said, "Let's just lay out every piece."
I took out my old duct tape and some superglue
Thinking, "That's exactly what he needs."

But I can't see what he sees in the dark
I can't be the one to find the missing parts
He's a loaded gun but he lost his aim
And I wish that I could erase his pain
But it's hard to fix a heart you didn't break

Adam's got a closet full of skeletons
Standing on the right side of his bed
When he's low he pulls 'em out and hangs them up as evidence
Screaming, "This is all the reasons why they left me!"

But I can't see what he sees in the dark
I can't be the one to find the missing parts
He's a broken car on a speeding lane
And I wish that I could erase his pain
But it's hard to fix a heart you didn't break

Oh. It's hard to fix a heart you didn't break
Oh. It's hard to fix a heart you didn't break
It's hard to fix a heart you didn't break
It's hard to fix a heart you didn't break
