Hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground, oh oh
Only sound, only sound that you hear is 'no'
You never saw it coming, slipped when you started running
And now you"ve come undone and I, I, I
Seen you fall, seen you crawl, on your knees, eh eh
Seen you lost in a crowd, seen your colours fade
Wish I could make it better, someday you won"t remember
This pain you thought would last forever and ever
There you"ll stand, ten feet tall
I will say I knew it all along
Your eyes are wider than distance
This life is sweeter than fiction
Just a shot, just a shot in the dark, oh oh
All you got, all you got are your shattered hopes
They never saw it coming, you hit the ground running
And now you"re on to something, I, I, I, I said
What a sight, what a sight when the light came on
Proved me right, proved me right when you proved them wrong
And in this perfect weather, it"s like we don"t remember
The rain we thought would last forever and ever
There you"ll stand, ten feet tall
I will say I knew it all along
Your eyes are wider than distance
This life is sweeter than fiction
There you"ll stand, next to me
All at once, the rest is history
Your eyes are wider than distance
This life is sweeter than fiction
I"ll be one of the many saying,
'Look at you, look at you now, now'
I"ll be one of the many saying,
'You made us proud, you made us proud, proud'
I"ll be one of the many saying,
'Look at you, look at you now, now'
I"ll be one of the many saying,
'You made us proud, you made us proud, proud'
And then they call your name and they put your picture in a frame
You know that I"ll be there time and again "cause I loved you when
When you hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground, oh oh
Only sound, only sound, only sound that you heard was 'no'
Now in this perfect weather, it"s like we don"t remember
The rain we thought would last forever and ever
There you"ll stand, ten feet tall
I will say I knew it all along
Your eyes are wider than distance
This life is sweeter than fiction
There you"ll stand, next to me
All at once, the rest is history
Your eyes are wider than distance
This life is sweeter than fiction
Only sound, only sound that you hear is 'no'
You never saw it coming, slipped when you started running
And now you"ve come undone and I, I, I
Seen you fall, seen you crawl, on your knees, eh eh
