Pieces
Rob Thomas Lyrics

Run away, run away if you can't speak
If you're unable to express yourself, the best solution might be to leave the situation altogether.

Turn a page on a world that you don't need
Sometimes it's important to let go of things that are no longer serving you and move forward.

Wide awake and you're scared that you won't come down now
When you're experiencing intense emotions, it can feel like you'll never be able to calm down and regain control.

Didn't I tell you you were gonna break down
Sometimes it's important to listen when others warn you about the consequences of your actions.

Didn't I warn you, didn't I warn you
Repeating a warning shows how much someone cares for your well-being, and how important they feel it is for you to listen.

Better take it easy, try to find a way out
When you're feeling overwhelmed, it's important to take a step back and find ways to alleviate stress or seek help.

Better start believing in yourself
Sometimes it can be hard to believe in yourself, but it's important to have confidence in your abilities and decisions.

We build it up, we tear it down
The patterns of creation and destruction are natural and cyclical, and can be applied to relationships or life in general.

We leave our pieces on the ground
When things fall apart or end, there are often remnants that remain and remind us of what was once there.

We see no end, we don't know how
During challenging times, it can be hard to see a way out or to know what the future holds.

We are lost and we're falling
When it feels like everything is coming apart, it's easy to feel adrift or helpless.

Hold onto me
In difficult times, it can be helpful to rely on a close friend or loved one for support.

You're all I have, all I have
During tough times, our relationships with others can become even more important and meaningful.

Now and then there's a light in the darkness
Even during the darkest times, there can still be moments of hope and brightness.

Feel around till you find where your heart went
When we feel lost or like we've lost something important, it's important to look inward and reconnect with ourselves.

There's a weight in the air but you can't see why, why
Sometimes there are invisible pressures or stresses that we can't see or identify, but still feel acutely.

Tell me what you're needing, give into your bleeding
During difficult times, it's important to communicate your needs to others and to allow yourself to be vulnerable.

Never any feeling for yourself
When we're struggling, it can be easy to neglect our own self-care and emotional needs.

Can you hold onto me
Asking for help or support from others is a brave and important step during difficult times.
