“I simply get away/ when they ask for money/ I take care of myself because I love myself/ piece by piece, I restored my faith/ that a heart can still beat even when it breaks,” he sang.

“So, I just wanted to explain how you feel now,” said Clarksson. “I am 43 years old. I have done some therapy, and I changed the lyrics now and I feel that it is perfect now. I promise. I swear for God, I will not change it again.”

“I’m really trying to unite it,” Clarksson said when his voice broke. Then he turned to clean his tears again.
After a little support from his audience, Clarkson finally said:
“Fuck him, let’s just sing. This is ‘piece of piece’.”

“I am learning every day how to love/ let the shame that you taught me/ piece by piece. I restored my faith/ that a heart can still overcome even if it breaks.”
Although Clarkson has made clear his reasons to divide with Blackstock, he had tried to remain friendly with him for the good of his children.
