Pieces of Puzzles the Kitten Has Eaten

So I think and I say
You got your honesty from a cereal box
Just as fake as plastic can be
And fortune cookies are not the way
Not even close to the real thing
So pack up your lies and your shame
You can come back but this time
I won't stay
You know the wind can blow me away
And I won't come back with the rain
So I think and I say
You got your words from a scrabble game
Too many letters together can score high
But out in the world
It's the meaning what counts
And you
Just as true as a horoscope can turn out to be
On a metro line on the back of the pages
Along with the crosswords and weather predictions
So I think and I say
I believe in you as much as I have faith in religion
My sunday sermon or anything purple
You know horses can ride me away
And I won't come back with the tide
Alice has grown and Neverland is off of the map
So you're just the dirt on the playground
We all leave behind
You're pieces of puzzles the kitten has eaten
