[ a million pieces ]

Carrying a millstone malaise
It's been pulling down your gaze

You pound the pavement
It don't give or care
This weight ain't yours to bear

Why're you holding grudges in old jars?
Why do you want show off all your scars?

What's it going to take to lay a few burdens down?
It's a beautiful sound...

When they all fall
Like a million raindropsFalling from a blue sky
Kissing your cares goodbyeThey all fall
Like a million pieces
A ticker tape parade highAnd now you're free to fly

When that muffled sigh
Says you're barely getting by
Cut your burdens loose and just simplifySimplify

This is not your floor
You're going higher than before
Drop the weight nowWait for the lookout guide
Look outside

As they all fall
Like a million raindrops
Falling from a blue sky
Kissing your cares goodbye

They all fall
Like a million pieces
A ticker tape parade high

Now you're f r e e t o f l y
