I've always loved Aimee Mann and her unique take on music pertaining to isolation, depression, and (lost?) Love. My favorite song from her would always be SAVE ME but sometimes I discover songs from her previous albums that fit perfectly with the mood I may be having. Perhaps this song is for someone I know...
Here's the lyrics to HUMPTY DUMPTY:
Say you were split, you were split in fragments
And none of the pieces would talk to you
Wouldn't you want to be who you had been
Well baby I want that too
So better take the keys and drive forever
Staying won't put these futures back together
All the perfect drugs and superheros
Wouldn't be enough to bring me up to zero
Baby, I bet you've been more than patient
Saying it's not a catastrophe
But I'm not the girl you once put your faith in
Just someone who looks like me
So better take the keys and drive forever
Staying won't put these futures back together
All the perfect drugs and superheros
Wouldn't be enough to bring me up to zero
So get out while you can
Get out while you can
Baby I'm pouring quick sand
And sinking is all I have planned
So better just go
Oh, better take the keys and drive forever
Staying won't put these futures back together
All the perfect drugs and superheros
Wouldn't be enough to bring me up to zero
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put baby together again
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put baby together again
