I try to understand how you feel
but how can I understand someone
if I can't understand myself?

I try to fit the pieces together
but all they do is fall
am I that fallen piece?
that piece that seems to never find
a place to put itself into a puzzle

if im that missing piece
how do I function without it?
how do I deal with the madness going on around me?
how do I deal with you?

if I can't function on my own,
how could I understand you,

when I can't understand myself
