Chorus:
Lift up and take flight
But your feet were stuck cold in the same old
Tripping over your laces
Now we fear the sunlight
But your heart was stone cold and you know
We are, Grounded

Verse 1:
Grounded lifeless stuck on my feet
Dear lord I beg you please this can't be the death of me
I've been a shell of me, fiending for your ecstasy
gave you the best of me, can't you spare some empathy?

I need some warmth your hearts so cold,
these scars won't heal right on their own,
from careless hearts to calloused ones,
oh baby girl how much we've grown

I've been reminiscing on the times when we were younger,
always summer, full of dreams nobody could take it from us.
Naive and foolish, made plans our future,
now I question if I even knew ya.

Who woulda, thought

I'd delete your number I remembered by heart,
just once,
could you call me please
swear you can call it what you want.
Looking for closure
or just an excuse to talk
got me wishing we could take it right back to the start.

Verse 2:

Now we’ve been constantly working, perfecting service with purpose

I know they heard this

Cool, calm, and collected upon my surface
These degrees unreachable as we burn ‘em like furnaces
Quick to cut the weak ties off like a tourniquet
I’ll admit, I was quick to commit while it was working man,
Now I’m just questioning truth, thoughts reoccurring and
Circling back, thinking where we were at, feeling like if love a verb it’s a massive attack

And I’ve been soul searching, I’m so certain you were my soul purpose,
We rehearsed the same show but now the curtains closing

We pause

Hear applause soaring in, appalled that’s all but a chance to begin
You were once on my mind and all in my soul, now that you gone I just have to let go
And was it worth it? Tell me is it worth it?

Bridge:
Every time I try to change my mind,
I lose my stride can’t say goodbye
I’m guessing a second time
drawing lines across your face
Every time I try to change your mind
Just decide to stay or chase this, away
