People struggle
Everywhere you look
It's written on their faces
Like an open book
Emptiness, unhappiness
Paralyze your heart
People are so fragile
Why is life so hard?
Because the world is a puzzle
So pick up the pieces
Fit them together again one by one
One by one
One by
One day, life is beautiful
Like living up in the stars
The next day, I say look out below
'Cause I'm falling apart
Emptiness, unhappiness
Paralyze your heart
People are so fragile
Why is life so hard?
Because the world is a riddle
To everyone in it
Nobody solves it the very first time
Because the world is a puzzle
So pick up the pieces
Fit them together again one by one
One by one
One day, life is beautiful
Like living up in the stars
The next day, I say look out below
'Cause I'm falling apart
Because the world is a riddle
To everyone in it
Nobody solves it the very first time
(Keep on trying)
Because the world is a puzzle
So pick up the pieces
Fit them together again one by one
One by one
One by one
One by one
One by one
One by one
