[Verse 1]

Barely afloat and we're taking on water

Still chasing the high that I felt the whole summer

Being buried alive with a smile on my face

A drink in my hand and a day to erase


[Chorus]

I'm picking up the pieces, please just look the other way

I'm picking up the pieces, please just look the other way


[Verse 2]

I go off the rails every chance that I'm given

Is it worth my life if it means I might fit in?

I look at the wounds that I choose to inflict

While I hold my tongue and I tighten my grip


[Chorus]

I'm picking up thе pieces, pleasе just look the other way

I'm picking up the pieces, please just look the other way


[Verse 3]

I'm not falling asleep, wish my heart would beat slower

Thinking back on my year, wanna start it all over

I wake you up and I tell you I'm losing control

I'm barely surviving, but I need you to know


[Chorus]

I'm picking up the pieces, please just look the other way

I'm picking up the pieces, please just look the other way

'Cause baby I'm afraid I'm slowly pushing you away

By showing you the deepest, darkest, weakest part of me


[Outro]

You said you'll always be right here to keep me company

When I don't even love myself, you love me anyway

When I don't even love myself, you love me anyway
