Lyrics
Walls
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.
Act like you're ashamed
that there's nothing left inside your frame
but i know that you buried what once was deep inside a maze
sincerity led astray, you're terrified
the face you show the world is who you really are
the crutch you call a name
safe in the haven of commonplace
you're in a cycle you can't escape
Tear down the walls that confine us all and we can start again
tear down the walls, it's so beautiful to be where we began
Afraid of what's behind
you loathe the other side
but it's here you'll feel awake
together we will tear down the walls, it's a shame it got this far.
