Lyrics:

Pick up the pieces, no one's doing it for you
It's getting late, and there's a long road ahead
A scattered line, an empty lane in the darkness
Carving a path through the world in your head
The night is cold, and the fear burns like wildfire
A scorching heat that makes you split at the seams
And somewhere out there is a chance to be better
Free from the chaos of nightmares and dreams

See that thorn in your side
Are you gonna let it slide?
If you let it take root 
It will eat you alive
There's still time left to change, 
There's a way to survive
So hold on

It's not the right time, but it's something you need now      
It's no beginning, but it's still a blank page
They're not the right words, but they'll keep you from living    
in quiet desperation the rest of your days
And who's to say that this road's going nowhere    
or only leads to a valley of lies?
Don't ever think that the life you've imagined      
Will always be gone when you open your eyes

See that thorn in your side
Are you gonna let it slide?
If you let it take root 
It will eat you alive
There's still time left to change
There's a way to survive
So hold on

Oh, how easy it is to get caught in the maze
of a story told a thousand different ways,
but it's always the same, 
it's always the same
You add fuel to the flames 
and it's always the same,
ends in heartache and shame 
and it's always the same

See that thorn in your side
Are you gonna let it slide?
If you let it take root 
It will eat you alive
There's still time left to change
There's a way to survive
So hold on
