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, I

Seen you fall, seen you crawl on your knees, eh eh

Seen you lost in a crowd, seen your colors fade

Wish I could make it better

Some day 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

You eyes 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 onto something, I, I, I say

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

You eyes wider than distance

This life is sweeter than fiction

There you'll stand, next to me

All at once, the rest is history

You eyes wider than distance

This life is sweeter than fiction

I'll be one of the many saying

Look at you now, 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 now, 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 we

Put your picture in a frame

You now 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 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

You eyes wider than distance

This life is sweeter than fiction

There you'll stand, next to me

All at once, the rest is history

You eyes wider than distance

This life is sweeter than fiction

Is sweeter than fiction

Is sweeter, yeah

Is sweeter, is sweeter

Sweeter than fiction
