My tears are dry Feet on the ground A better place was found My tears are dry The line's cut loose No better place to choose Where was I? And where is this? Not quite the place for happiness Not quite the time to make amends Nowhere to hide from all these eyes and all of these lies I'd learn to fly if I knew how to dream Without a sound I scream My tears are dry Feet on the ground A better place was found My tears are dry The line's cut loose No better place to choose We grow old before we know Stay strong is what we're told We can't feel warm without feeling cold If I could turn back time and change your mind, I swear I would try We'd learn to fly and mend our broken wings I'd hear your silent scream Your tears are dry Feet on the ground A better place was found Your tears are dry The line's cut loose No better place to choose
