Hoobastank - Pieces Lyrics

Turn around and pick up the pieces

I like a rock sink
Sinking til I hit the bottom
The water is much deeper than I thought

Nothing to swim with
Kicking but I keep sinking
A lesson that no one could have ever taught

[Chorus]
Cause I can almost breathe the air
Right beyond my fingertips
I'll turn around and pick up the pieces
One more push and I'll be there
Back where I belong
I'll turn around and pick up the pieces

I see the picture
Blurry but now it's in focus
A fairy tale I purchased on my own

I finally woke up
Everything is better
A chance for me to open up and grow

[Chorus]

Turn around and pick up the pieces [x3]

Suffocating
Sinking further almost everyday
(Turn around and pick up the pieces)
Barely treading water
(Turn around and pick up the pieces)
Knowing I will not give up
I will not give up

I will not give up

[Chorus]
