Tear these walls rip them down Nothing left to be found Except for skies of brighter days The brilliance of it persuades Me to redeem myself From the burdens exile Don’t make a big promise And prove that you’re weak Make me a promise You promise to keep Something for my worries Something for my sleep Something for these dreams I have of finally being free Paint these walls bright and new Something resilient Paint a vision that requires truth Paint a wonderful work of art Paint something brilliant Comfortably content Paint this vision that I see Into something flying free Paint these hills into skies Ocean bound widened eyes Grow from a seed Extend vertically From a crack in concrete Stretching with relief

Tear these walls rip them down Nothing left to be found Except for skies of brighter days The brilliance of it persuades Me to redeem myself From the burdens exile Don’t make a big promise And prove that you’re weak Make me a promise You promise to keep Something for my worries Something for my sleep Something for these dreams I have of finally being free Paint these walls bright and new Something resilient Paint a vision that requires truth Paint a wonderful work of art Paint something brilliant Comfortably content Paint this vision that I see Into something flying free Paint these hills into skies Ocean bound widened eyes Grow from a seed Extend vertically From a crack in concrete Stretching with relief
