  • You say it's easier
    Alone and undisturbed
    You said yes and danced before
    And got your feelings hurt
    You say most days your good
    It's not so bad this room
    Watching the rain today
    Even though it's clear and sunny
    And you fight it so hard
    How to tell if it's real or not

    Take a breath and listen (listen)
    Open up stop wishin' (wishin')
    All that you've been missin' (missin')
    Standing in front of you
    Everything you're fearin' (fearin')
    All the walls you're buildin' (buildin')
    Take a chance you're reason (reason)
    Standing in front of you
    Standing in front of you
    Standing in front of you
    Standing in front of you

    You start to sway again
    Feelin' good in your skin
    You start to remember when
    You didn't have to try
    And then the glitter turns to dust
    The color fades enough to make out pictures of a fire
    That burns like love
    You can close your eyes don't worry
    I'll still be here in the morning

    Take a breath and listen (listen)
    Open up stop wishin' (wishin')
    All that you've been missin' (missin')
    Standing in front of you
    Everything you're fearin' (fearin')
    All the walls you're buildin' (buildin')
    Take a chance you're reason (reason)
    Standing in front of you
    Standing in front of you
    Standing in front of you
    Standing in front of you

    And they won't break us
    And they can't get through
    'Cause I'm gonna be here
    Standing in front of you

    Take a breath and listen (listen)
    Open up stop wishin' (wishin')
    All that you've been missin' (missin')
    Standing in front of you
    Everything you're fearin' (fearin')
    All the walls you're buildin' (buildin')
    Take a chance you're reason (reason)
    Standing in front of you
    Standing in front of you
    Standing in front of you
    Standing in front of you Writer/s: Aben Eubanks, Kelly Brianne Clarkson
