I see your inner walls built incredibly high Your walls seem to match the height of mine Impenetrable walls fastened together with lies To give off the impression that you are just fine Founded on grounds scattered with broken binds Unlike historical buildings that deteriorate over time Your walls strengthen, reacting to what was unkind A never ending job you cannot simply resign Looking after your heart in the walls you refined Examining the scars that constantly reminds Why your walls were built and cautiously designed   You retreat behind your walls where safety is implied Hidden in darkness, your feelings start to unwind Consumed by the darkness you become blind Sheltered by your walls you cannot see you are confined Unable to see me, we are on the same side Tears manage to escape, holding back is denied Let me hold you, I am here, here for you to confide Let us use the bricks that emerged from our cries Tearing down our walls that use to misguide Build stairs from our ruins so we can rise Leading to a future that remains untried

Your Walls And Mine
I see your inner walls built incredibly high Your walls seem to match the height of mine Impenetrable walls fastened together with lies To give off the impression that you are just fine Founded on grounds scattered with broken binds Unlike historical buildings that deteriorate over time Your walls strengthen, reacting to what was unkind A never ending job you cannot simply resign Looking after your heart in the walls you refined Examining the scars that constantly reminds Why your walls were built and cautiously designed   You retreat behind your walls where safety is implied Hidden in darkness, your feelings start to unwind Consumed by the darkness you become blind Sheltered by your walls you cannot see you are confined Unable to see me, we are on the same side Tears manage to escape, holding back is denied Let me hold you, I am here, here for you to confide Let us use the bricks that emerged from our cries Tearing down our walls that use to misguide Build stairs from our ruins so we can rise Leading to a future that remains untried
