Parachute

AlphabetLyrics.com


I built a wall as tall as the trees
One side for them, the other for me
I spent my whole life
Away from the front lines
'til you came crashing through
Lost my defences
Now I'm defenceless with you.

I'm introverted, it's under the surface
My car's in accelerate, I wanna reverse it
I walk on the stage and I look for the curtain
Sometimes I wish I could be a new person
I'm a deep cut, a b-side
An extended version
A language they don't speak
A shape that's emerging
But you
Not with you.

Bring me the clouds
And I'll be the moon
Shining so bright
But only for you.

You start with a stream
You end with the sea
If you give me time
I'll give you everything
If I climb a mountain
I'd never reach the top
'cause the playing the hero
Is something I'm not.

I'm introverted, it's under the surface
My car's in accelerate, I wanna reverse it
I walk on the stage and I look for the curtain
Sometimes I wish I could be a new person
I'm a deep cut, a b-side
An extended version
A language they don't speak
A shape that's emerging
But you
Not with you.

I am the comic
The best selling book
Flying through free fall
And you are the parachute.

Bring me the stars
I'll burn like they do
Bring me the clouds
And I'll be the moon
Shining so bright
But only for you
Only for you.
