"The Leap" lyrics
(from "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1" soundtrack)
Day after day I'm waiting
Sitting around here poised and ready
Why do I feel so numb?
Hear me now, still when I feel most lonely
There will be people all around me
Shuffling past my eyes
So I live in my head
Regrets
Leave 'em on the floor, wrap 'em in an old black sheet
I'm gonna set it all ablaze, watch it burn to ash and dust
Looking for a sign, karma's coming back for us
I was waiting on you, waiting on you
The leap, leap, leap
Don't look, don't look down
The leap, leap, leap
(Ooh hurry up, don't miss your chance)
(Time is running out the clock, ain't gon' stop for no man)
For you, for me
Night after night I'm suffering
Months have gone by it seems like dozens
Why do I feel so numb?
Hear me now
If you're the man you claim to be
Why do you drain the life right out of me?
Never make a move, never make a change
I needed, I needed, I needed, to make a shift of faith
Leave 'em on the floor, wrap 'em in an old black sheet
I'm gonna set it all ablaze, watch it burn to ash and dust
Looking for a sign, karma's coming back for us
I was waiting on you, waiting on you
The leap, leap, leap
Don't look, don't look down
The leap, leap, leap
(Ooh hurry up, don't miss your chance)
(Time is running out the clock, ain't gon' stop for no man)
For you, for me
Sitting around here poised and ready
Why do I feel so numb?
Hear me now, still when I feel most lonely
There will be people all around me
Shuffling past my eyes
So I live in my head
Regrets
Leave 'em on the floor, wrap 'em in an old black sheet
I'm gonna set it all ablaze, watch it burn to ash and dust
Looking for a sign, karma's coming back for us
I was waiting on you, waiting on you
The leap, leap, leap
Don't look, don't look down
The leap, leap, leap
(Ooh hurry up, don't miss your chance)
(Time is running out the clock, ain't gon' stop for no man)
For you, for me
Night after night I'm suffering
Months have gone by it seems like dozens
Why do I feel so numb?
Hear me now
If you're the man you claim to be
Why do you drain the life right out of me?
Never make a move, never make a change
I needed, I needed, I needed, to make a shift of faith
Leave 'em on the floor, wrap 'em in an old black sheet
I'm gonna set it all ablaze, watch it burn to ash and dust
Looking for a sign, karma's coming back for us
I was waiting on you, waiting on you
The leap, leap, leap
Don't look, don't look down
The leap, leap, leap
(Ooh hurry up, don't miss your chance)
(Time is running out the clock, ain't gon' stop for no man)
For you, for me
