Parachute Lyrics by Nina Nesbitt
I built a wall as tall as the trees
One side for them the other for me
I spent my whole life
Away from the front lines
Til you came crashing through
Lost my defences
Now I’m defenceless with you
I’m introverted
It’s under the surface
My car’s in accelerate
I wanna reverse it
I walk on the stage
And I look for the curtain
Sometimes I wish I could be a new person
I’m a deep cut, a B side
And extended version
A language they don’t speak
A shape that’s emerging
But you
Not with you
Bring me the clouds
I’ll be the moon
Shining so bright
But only for you
You start with stream
You end with the sea
If you give me time
Then I’ll give you everything
If I climb a mountain
I’ll never reach the top
Cause the playing the hero
Is something I’m not
I’m introverted
It’s under the surface
My car’s in accelerate
I wanna reverse it
I walk on the stage
And I look for the curtain
Sometimes I wish I could be a new person
I’m a deep cut, a B side
And extended version
A language they don’t speak
A shape that’s emerging
But you
Not with you
I am the comic
The best selling book
Flying through free fall
And you are the parachute
Bring me the stars
I’ll burn like they do
Bring me the clouds
I’ll be the moon
I’ll shining so bright
But only for you
