Lyrics

THE BIG PICTURE

by Rick Bell / Michael Lanning

STOLEN FIRE OF A PROMISED LIFE
STANDING IDLE ON THE EDGE OF A KNIFE
RUNNING AWAY FROM THE LOVE YOU SAVED
POLISHED WITH POISON, THE DREAMS YOU?VE MADE

NEVER EXPECTED TO GET THIS FAR
NEVER ACCEPTED TO BE WHO YOU ARE
FOREVER WAITING IN THE WINGS UNTIED
DON?T YOU COMPROMISE

AND IF YOU FEEL SOMEONE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF YOU
YOUJUST MAY BE RIGHT AND THEN
YOU MAY BE WRONG AGAIN

MARCH TO THE LEFT, MARCH TO THE RIGHT
HOW DO YOU FIT INTO THE BIG PICTURE
STAND IN THE DARK, STAND IN THE LIGHT
HOW DO YOU FIT INTO THE BIG PICTURE

YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO BE LEFT ALONE
YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO BE ON YOUR OWN
WHAT?S UP WITH YOU AND THIS CHANGE OF HEART
WE WERE WORLDS APART

WE ONLY KNOW WHAT WE NEED TO
WEONLY SEE WHAT WE HAVE TO
WELL, YOU CAN CALL IT WHAT YOU WANT TO
I CALL IT LOVE

AND IF YOU KNEW THAT THERE?S STILL A PLACE FOR YOU
YOU CAN WIN THE HUMAN RACE
ALL IN RECORD TIME

MARCH TO THE LEFT, MARCH TO THE RIGHT
HOW DO YOU FIT INTO THE BIG PICTURE
STAND IN THE DARK, STAND IN THE LIGHT
HOW DO YOU FIT INTO THE BIG PICTURE
