Sweeter Than Fiction

Hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground, oh, oh
Only sound, only sound that you hear is: No
You never saw it coming, slipped when you started running
And now you've come undone and
I, I, I, I

Seen you fall, seen you crawl on your knees, eh, ayy
Seen you lost in a crowd, seen your colors fade
Wish I could make it better, someday you won't remember
This pain you thought would last forever and ever

There you'll stand, ten feet tall
I will say: I knew it all along
Your eyes are wider than distance
This life is sweeter than fiction

Just a shot, just a shot in the dark, oh, oh
All you got, all you got are your shattered hopes
They never saw it coming, you hit the ground running
And now you're on to something
I, I, I say

What a sight, what a sight when the light came on
Proved me right, proved me right when you proved them wrong
And, in this perfect weather, it's like we don't remember
The rain we thought would last forever and ever

There you'll stand, ten feet tall
I will say: I knew it all along
Your eyes are wider than distance
This life is sweeter than fiction (sweeter than fiction)
There you'll stand, next to me (next to me)
All at once, the rest is history (ooh)
Your eyes are wider than distance
This life is sweeter than fiction (sweeter than fiction)

I'll be one of the many saying
Look at you now, look at you now and now
I'll be one of the many saying
You've made us proud, you've made us proud, proud
I'll be one of the many saying
Look at you now, look at you now and now
I'll be one of the many saying
You've made us proud, you've made us proud, proud

And when they call your name and they
Put your picture in a frame
You know that I'll be there time and again
'Cause I loved you when
When you

Hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground, oh, oh
Only sound, only sound that you heard was: No
Now, in this perfect weather, it's like we don't remember
The rain we thought would last forever and ever (forever)

There you'll stand, ten feet tall (ten feet tall)
I will say: I knew it all along (all along)
Your eyes are wider than distance (I knew it all along)
This life is sweeter than fiction (sweeter than fiction)
There you'll stand, next to me (next to me)
All at once, the rest is history (ooh)
Your eyes are wider than distance (I knew it all along)
This life is sweeter than fiction (it's sweeter than fiction)

It's sweeter than fiction
It's sweeter, yeah
It's sweeter, it's sweeter
It's sweeter than fiction
