Murder by Death - Piece By Piece

You wouldn't believe all the things that I've done

You just can't see 'cause you're young

I've paid my dues and I had my fun

[00:42.04]You'll have yours too, son

You wouldn't believe how fast they can take it away

You're walking 'round free and in chains the next day

Time has a way of breaking you down

Piece by piece

From your tooth to your claw

Oh, trust me my son

[01:31.75]'Cause you're still young

You wouldn't believe all the things that I've seen

The girls I have known, and places I've been

I've stood at Pompeii, prayed to stones in Delhi

But you don't see **** when you look at me

I've watched the smoke rise from a prince's pyre

It don't look much different from a beggar's fire

I know you don't think much of me

But in time, you'll see

In time, my son

Don't do what I've done

When I was young

I've got some wisdom

From the time that I've done

But you're still young
