Ready to Fall

Hold on, slow down, again from the top now and tell me everything
I know I've been gone for what seems like forever but I'm here now waiting

To convince you that I'm not a ghost or a stranger, but closer than you think
She said, "Just go on to what you pretend is your life but please don't die on me"

Wings won't take me!
Heights don't faze me!
So take a step!
But don't look down, take a step...!

Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall
I think I'm at the edge now, but I could be wrong
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall, ooh-oh, ooh-oh

Perpetual motion, the image won't focus, a blur is all that's seen
But here in this moment like the eye of a storm, it all came clear to me

I found a shoulder to lean on, an infallible reason to live all by itself
I took one last look from the heights that I once loved and then I ran like hell

Wings won't take me!
Heights don't faze me!
So take a step!
But don't look down, take a step...!

Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall, ooh-oh, ooh-oh

I count the times that I've been sorry (I know, I know)
Now my compassion slowly drowns (I know, I know)
If there's a time these walls could guard you (I know, I know)
Then let that time be right now

Now I'm standing on the rooftop
Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall

I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall, ooh-oh, ooh-oh

Now I'm standing on the rooftop (ready to fall)
Now I'm standing on the rooftop (ready to fall)
Now I'm standing on the rooftop (ready to fall)
Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall
