Step by step, we're moving slow Breath by breath, I learn your language as we go Will we find our fill If you won't take the lead? We can't hurt and heal If I don't see you bleed We dance and spin but never pierce the skin I'll never break inside your walls if you don't let me in So build them high and don't look down 'Cause it's lonely in the clouds up there when you finally look around For solid ground Page by page, you draw your lines Day by day, you build a fortress in your mind Sheltered soul More and more it grows Tell me, what's the toll Of living every day alone? We dance and spin but never pierce the skin I'll never break inside your walls if you don't let me in So build them high and don't look down 'Cause it's lonely in the clouds up there when you finally look around For solid ground Cover your scars and bury your sins Show me what hides beneath the skin You cover your scars and bury your sins Show me what hides beneath the skin Cover your scars and bury your sins Show me what hides beneath the skin You cover your scars and bury your sins Show me what hides beneath the skin Cover your scars and bury your sins Show me what hides beneath the skin You just lost yourself inside your head Show me what hides beneath the skin Cause I'll never know We dance and spin but never pierce the skin I'll never break inside your walls if you don't let me in So build them high and don't look down 'Cause it's lonely in the clouds up there when you finally look around For solid ground
