[Intro]
Turn around and pick up the pieces

[Verse 1]
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]
And 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
Right where I belong
I'll turn around and pick up the pieces

[Verse 2]
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]
And 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
Right where I belong
I'll turn around and pick up the pieces

[Break]
Turn around and pick up the pieces
Turn around and pick up the pieces
Turn around and pick up the pieces

[Bridge]
Suffocating, sinking further almost everyday
(Turn around and pick up the pieces)
Barely treading water knowing
I will not give up
I will not give up
I will not give up

[Chorus]
'Cuz 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
Right where I belong
I'll turn around and pick up the pieces
