[Verse 1]

I never thought that it'd be easy

'Cause we're both so distant now

And the walls are closing in on us, and we're wondering how

No one has a solid answer

But just walking in the dark

And you can see the look on my face, it just tears me apart

[Pre-Chorus]

So we fight through the hurt

And we cry, and cry, and cry, and cry

Then we live and we learn

And we try, and try, and try, and try

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

And mommy, you were always somewhere

And daddy, I live out of town

So tell me, how could I ever be normal somehow?

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

[Pre-Chorus]

So we fight through the hurt

And we cry and cry and cry and cry

Then we live and we learn

And we try and try and try and try

[Chorus]

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

[Bridge]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Outro]

I never thought that it'd be easy

'Cause we're both so distant now

And the walls are closing in on us

And we're wondering how
