You say it's easier
Alone and undisturbed, you
Said yes and danced before
And got your feelings hurt
You say most days you're good
It's not so bad, this room
Watchin' the rain today
Even though it's clear and sunny
And you fight it, so hard
How to tell if it's real or not
Take a breath and listen (listen)
Open up, stop wishin' (wishin')
All that you've been missin' (missin')
Standing in front of you
Everything you're fearin' (fearin')
All the walls you're buildin' (buildin')
Take a chance, your reason (reason)
Standing in front of you
Standing in front of you
Standing in front of you
Standing in front of you
You start to sway again
Feelin' good in your skin, you
Start to remember when
You didn't have to try and then
The glitter turns to dust, the color fades enough to
Make out pictures of a fire
That burns like love
You can close your eyes, don't worry
I'll still be here in the mornin'
Take a breath and listen (listen)
Open up, stop wishin' (wishin')
All that you've been missin' (missin')
Standing in front of you
Everything you're fearin' (fearin')
All the walls you're buildin' (buildin')
Take a chance, your reason (reason)
Standing in front of you
Standing in front of you
Standing in front of you
Standing in front of you
And they won't break us
And they can't get through
'Cause I'm gonna be here
Standing in front of you
Take a breath and listen (listen)
Open up, stop wishin' (wishin')
All that you've been missin' (missin')
Standing in front of you
Everything you're fearin' (fearin')
All the walls you're buildin' (buildin')
Take a chance, your reason (reason)
Standing in front of you
Standing in front of you
Standing in front of you
Standing in front of you
Standing in front of you
Standing in front of you
