Lyrics

Somebody pick up my pieces
I'm scattered everywhere
And put me back together
And put me way over there
And take me out of contention
I surrender my crown
Somebody pick up my pieces
It's just me comin' down
Well, I sure thought I had her
Lord, I know she had me
But what I thought was heaven
Was just falling debris
Well, I may not be crazy
But I got one hell of a start
Somebody pick up my pieces
I think I'm fallin' apart
And don't follow my footsteps
Step over my trail
The road is too narrow
And your footing could fail
And the fall to the bottom
Could tear you apart
And they'll be pickin' up pieces
Of you and your heart
Don't follow my footsteps
Step over my trail
The road is too narrow
And your footing could fail
And the fall to the bottom
Could tear you apart
And they'll be pickin' up pieces
Of you and your heart
They'll be pickin' up pieces
Of you and your heart
