[Verse 1]
You wake up
In the middle of the night
In the middle of a lie
You fall out
Like a loser in a fight
In the middle of the night
You feel rough
But you haven't had a drop
And the pounding never stops
And your doubts have never hit you quite this hard

[Chorus]
Step down from it
That wall is too high for us
Don't hold your love
Where I can't reach
Step down from it
You don't have to hide from us
Don't hold your love
Away from me
And I will be as steady as a heartbeat

[Verse 2]
You wake up
Just the way you went to bed
Same dilemma in your head
And you're stuck
In the what-ifs and the whys
And it's hard to realize
That one day you'll believe
That your heart is safe with me

[Chorus]
Step down from it
That wall is too high for us
Don't hold your love
Where I can't reach
Step down from it
You don't have to hide from us
Don't hold your love
Away from me
And I will be as steady as a heartbeat

[Bridge]
Dreams pass below her tower
You're worried in the coldest hours
That no one will be your friend

[Chorus]
Step down from it
That wall is too high for us
Don't hold your love
Where I can't reach
Step down from it
You don't have to hide from us
Don't hold your love
Away from me
And I will be as steady as a heartbeat
