Break it down

Baby I tried
Using conventional lines
But you close the lights
Pretend nobody's inside
You read black and white
I grew in the shade
I'd be happy to meet with you
Half of the way

What if the sky lifted just a little
We started living bigger lives
What if the world shifted just a little
Right was left and left was right
What if we gave the benefit of the doubt
We could just let love break it down

Were you surprised
How quickly we both took our sides
How do you survive
Heated up with fire in your eyes
We tend to separate
How'd we get this far away
I'd be happy to meet with you
Half of the way

What if the sky lifted just a little
We started living bigger lives
What if the world shifted just a little
Right was left and left was right
What if we gave the benefit of the doubt
We could just let love break it down
