Pick up the fragments and piece them together Tell me do you like what you've found? Are your thoughts like the earth spinning round? Existence is pure pantomime Why is life such a puzzle sometimes? Trapped in a world I no longer feel part of Each day is a thorn in my side Though I've carried my cross, worn my heart on my sleeve Still deep inside something has died If men have a sell-by date I've just reached mine Now we've come to the end of the line Why is life such a puzzle sometimes? Well I just can't believe that it's happened again Always knew that it would, just a matter of when A lie was the last straw on this camel's back And just like Lot's wife I could never look back So maybe the reason I act so estranged is you still dream of him It's you that has changed No method to madness, no reason to rhyme Now we've come to the end of the line Why is life such a puzzle sometimes? Well I just can't believe that it's happened again Always knew that it would, just a matter of when A lie was the last straw on this camel's back And just like Lot's wife I could never look back So maybe the reason I act so estranged is you still dream of him It's you that has changed If men have a sell-by date I've just reached mine Now we've come to the end of the line Why is life such a puzzle sometimes? Why is life such a puzzle sometimes?
