Lyrics
Verse 1
Woke up this morning to a big change
What was here yesterday doesn't remain
I wiped away my tears in the blistering sun
Wondering where the hell my life had gone
Chorus
I can't wrap this 'round my little head
What was so alive now is dead
Got to stop dwelling on what besieged us
Time to start picking up the pieces
Pick up the pieces
Verse 2
My heart is beating on a pile of debris
Air so thick I can hardly breathe
I never saw this coming seems so unreal
I can't figure out how to feel
Chorus
Bridge
No one knows the big plan
We never really know where we stand
Just keep in mind things can change on a dime
And our strength comes from within
Chorus and out
