Oh, oh, oh

I never thought that it'd be easy
'Cause we both so distant now
And the walls are closing in on us
And we're wondering how
No one has a solid answer
Just walking in the dark
And you can see the look on my face
It just tears me apart

So we fight (so we fight) through the hurt (through the hurt)
And we cry, and cry, and cry, and cry
And we live (and we live) and we learn (and we learn)
And we try, and try, and try, and try

So it's up to you and it's up to me
That we meet in the middle
On our way back down to earth
Down to earth, down to earth
On our way back down to earth
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)

Mommy you were always somewhere
And Daddy I live outta town
So tell me how could I ever be normal some how
You tell me this is for the best
So tell me why am I in tears, woah
So far away and now I just need you here

So we fight (so we fight) through the hurt (through the hurt)
And we cry, and cry, and cry, and cry
And we live (and we live) and we learn (and we learn)
And we try, and try, and try, and try

So it's up to you and it's up to me
That we meet in the middle
On our way back down to earth
Down to earth, down to earth
On our way back down to earth
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)

We fell so far away from where we used to be
Now we're standing, and where do we go
When there's no road, to get to your heart
Let's start over again

So it's up to you and it's up to me
That we meet in the middle
On our way back down to earth
Down to earth, down to earth
On our way back down to earth
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)
(Back down to earth, back down to earth)

I never thought that it'd be easy
'Cause we both so distant now
And the walls are closing in on us
And we're wondering how.
