Picking Up The Pieces

(Joe Pereira)

Once I believed in love so true

Never a grey cloud 

in skies painted blue

But when the walls crumbled, 

and the hurt revealed,

A heartache running deep, 

With wounds yet to heal

It’s just an illusion, Shadows in the night,

Love lost in the darkness, 

searching for the light,

Brawling in the background, 

Trying to find the right way,

Trying to pick up the the pieces, 

Trying to seize the day

Trying to find the right way

Trying to find the right way 

Picking up the pieces

Trying to seize the day

Trying to find the right way

Trying to find the right way 

Picking up the pieces

Trying to seize the day

Through tears and pain, I’ll learn to stand tall,

And proudly display the scars, 

And never fear the falls

I’ve seen through the veil, 

Where deceit shows

In this game better known

as ‘Swimming with the flow’

It’s just an illusion, Shadows in the night,

Love lost in the darkness, 

searching for the light,

Brawling in the background

Trying to find the right way,

Trying to pick up the the pieces, 

Trying to seize the day

Trying to find the right way

Trying to find the right way 

Picking up the pieces

Trying to seize the day

Trying to find the right way

Trying to find the right way 

Picking up the pieces

Trying to seize the day
