"Fly Before You Fall" lyrics
"Fly Before You Fall"
(from "Beyond The Lights" soundtrack)
I see the way that you look when you hear his name
I see his picture up in your frame
And you refuse to admit you still miss him but it's okay
You're a tower of strength when you're breaking down
But through the wall I can feel your cry
And when it's quiet you're screaming inside
And I break as I hear you
Loud as a bomb
Wanting a shoulder to cry on
I hear you
Tumbling fast
Here and now, you're afraid
Don't you worry
I'll teach you to fly before you fall away
It's in the moments when you're left all on your own
And it hits you from out of nowhere
You try to hide it sometimes unsuccessfully
With a smile that fades quickly
Your resistance to sadness is futile but
You're a fighter, can't stand defeat
You're a magician at hiding the hurt from you
But I see and I hear you
Loud as a bomb
Wanting a shoulder to cry on
I hear you
Tumbling fast
Here and now, you're afraid
Don't be scared
Don't be scared
Cause I hear you
Loud as a bomb
Wanting a shoulder to cry on, I hear you
Tumbling fast
Here and now, you're afraid
Don't you worry
I'll teach you to fly before you fall

Tamar Braxton - "My Man" Boy, you let me down
I am so confused
I stood right by your side through everything that you went through
Why is she around?
Why are you so cruel?
How could you just turn your back when I stood by...
John Legend - "Surefire" Can you just stay through the night
Turn down the bed and the blinds
Before you turn around
Can you just stay through the night?
Let me breathe you in 'til gravity bends
And we fall through the hole...
Emeli Sandé - "Clown" I guess it's funnier from where you're standing
'Cause from over here I missed the joke
Clear the way for my crash landing
I've done it again
Another number for your notes
I'd be smiling if I wasn't...
Todrick Hall - "Color" Every day before today was never gray
It's always black and white
Until tonight, yeah
I wasn't expecting you to have me seeing sepia
In shades of light
But it feels so right, yeah
The way you touch...
Thirdstory - "Still In Love" Summer night, drinkin' wine
By the fire, catchin' up
You looking good, wish I could
Tell you I was over us
I get high every night when I'm all alone
'Cause it helps me forget that I'm feeling low...
