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 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 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 Suffocating sinking further almost everyday Barely treading water knowing I will not give up I will not give up I will not give up 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 Turn around and pick up the pieces
