Pick Up the Pieces - Nations Afire

In my mind

Every time

Maybe we’re falling

We’re failing

You can’t accuse me

After all I’ve endured

We’re moving

Slowly

As we fall

So bag away the evidence

Let’s start this trial now

One life to live

Pick up the pieces and start again

I wanted to tell you there’s some way to save you

One day you’ll fall

And you’ll be reaching for someone’s hand

They’ll never protect us from what lies within our homes

With no hope

Grant me no peace

Cover those bruises

You can see

Can no one help?

There’s no other way

From here

And moving slowly as we fall

One life to live

Pick up the pieces and start again

I wanted to tell you there’s some way to save you

One day you’ll fall

And you’ll be reaching for someone’s hand

They’ll never protect us from what lies within our homes

So victimized

It’s your decision to leave

And believe there’s…

One life to live

Pick up the pieces and start again

One day you’ll fall

And you’ll be reaching for someone’s hand

They’ll never protect us from what lies within our homes

(One life)

Pick up the pieces

(One life)

And start again

They’ll never protect us from what lies within our homes
