And on the day the door closes, I won't be able to hold this, the thoughts inside of my head
Hoping nobody will ever notice or lose focus
Seems the sun has lost its brightness and the night is getting darker
Tell me your nightmares as I light this candle, not a a blunt
I've stopped smoking, I'm tired of choking on the promises I've broken and the words I've never spoken
And as I reminisce and wait for my door to open
There ain't enough words to describe how much I've been hoping for a sense of calm
Just tell me what's going on
Should I keep making the songs, or am I living this life wrong
And it's hard to take in, so tell me piece by piece
I've been searching this whole world trying to find my inner peace
Trying to find my inner peace, my inner peace
Trying to find my inner peace
Trying to find my inner peace
Trying to find my inner peace
Piece by piece
Trying to find my inner peace
Trying to find my inner peace
Trying to find my inner peace
Piece by piece
And as we slowly drift apart, I feel it in my heart
And it's simple, there's no need for me to start
It's just my mind playing games until I see it
They way I babysit my inner peace so I can be it, so be it
And that's they way it's gonna stay
Pull out the pen and pad and watch my thoughts play, scatter across the page, boxed inside of a cage
And the only time they let me out play is on the stage
But when I really think about it, I ain't hating
As long as I'm making music and the people are still relating
And I just want more, more than what you're giving
This music is my drug, just look at what it f**ing did to me!
A spark inside of my soul, I feel it taking a toll
But this sh** makes me happy, and it makes me feel whole
And it's hard to take in, so tell me piece by piece
I've been searching this whole world trying to find my inner peace
Trying to find my inner peace, my inner peace
Piece by piece
Trying to find my inner peace
Trying to find my inner peace
Trying to find my inner peace
Piece by piece
Trying to find my inner peace
Trying to find my inner peace
Trying to find my inner peace
Piece by piece, piece by piece
Yeah, piece by piece
