"Walls" lyrics

"Walls"

Never thought that I would end up like this
Building up the barricades, brick by brick
Heaven knowing what it is to be free
Just faded (Just faded)

Do you know everything's riding on, riding on us to save them
Oh, look at this life
We built it all
I just wanna see the walls crashing down
Burn to the ground
Let them stand tall
'Cause I remember how it felt when we led the foundations
Like nothing could harm them
But I see the cracks in the floor
Oh-oh, look at their lives
Can we save them somehow?
'Cause I just wanna see the walls crashing down

I don't wanna have to say this again
Something's gotta break hard and change, my friend
Everything that happened back when
Just faded (Just faded)

Do you know everything's riding on, riding on us to save them?
Oh, look at this life
We built it all
I just wanna see the walls crashing down
Burn to the ground
Let them stand tall
'Cause I remember how it felt when we led the foundations
Like nothing could harm them
But I see the cracks in the floor
Oh-oh, look at their lives
Can we save them somehow? (Somehow)
'Cause I just wanna see the walls crashing down

We can't go back in time, but we can try
Try to get them back home

Look at this life
We built it all
And I just wanna see the walls crashing down
Burn to the ground
Let them stand tall
'Cause I just wanna see the walls crashing down, mm
I just wanna see the walls crashing down
Can we save them somehow?
