I left my pride on the ground

It got all bent up when my body was found

I just stood six feet from youI can′t get much closer without losing more of

Me without losing you

Just one more thing that I put you through

Oh, when I hit the dirt

And my lungs start to burn, I'm

Desperately trying to get back to earth

And be there for you

God, I′m trying to, it's

Easy to say, so much harder to do

And it's gonna hurt

When I hit the dirt

Oh-oh, when I hit the dirt, yeah

No, I′m not trying to go

If you skip a few chapters you′ll see how the story goes

But I can't pretend

It′s not gonna suck

But it's not the end

When I hit the dirt

And my lungs start to burn, I′m

Desperately trying to get back to earth

And be there for you

God, I'm trying to, it′s

Easy to say, so much harder to do

And it's gonna hurt

When I hit the dirt

Ooh yeah, when I hit the dirt, yeah

(God, I'm trying to)

(When I hit the dirt, yeah, oh)
