Lyrics
Barriers
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Floating with nowhere to hide
Unspoken twist back inside
How did we get here?
Life don't belong here
Feel like I just never tried
To find a way back to the outside
It stops me from breathing
It kills all the dreaming
Talking to you from the other side of a wall in my mind
And it's clear that you're near to me
I think I found a way to understand why
I couldn't see what was happening
The fear overcame me
I took a trip on the inside, I took a trip on the inside
I try to hold on until this feeling is gone
Break through to the other side
I need to break through to the other side
Of everything that is hurting you
I just can't lay down and die
It takes a lifetime to understand why
It seems that you're near me
But you don't seem to hear me
Talking to you from the other side of a wall in my mind
And it's clear that you're near to me
I think I found a way to understand why
I couldn't see what was happening
The fear overcame me
I took a trip on the inside, I took a trip on the inside
I try to hold on until this feeling is gone
Break through to the other side
I need to break through to the other side
Of everything that is hurting you
