lyrics

The voice of the lost still can't be found
Open hearts don't mean a thing to some
Is there a reason for your ignorance
To me, it makes no sense

The words that mean so much to those
Who spill them out for the whole wide world
Their fears and love pour from their mouths
Regardless of how it may sound

No giving from your heart any more
Closed yourself off from humanity
Reality

So I'm breaking down the walls
And I'm breaking down the barriers
And every night I lie awake
Thinking about how
To move that first
That first brick

Walk around like your faultless
Like your right in every fucking way
The sun in yours and yours alone
To one will counter what you say

Be all and end all epitome
Of every body within this scene
Your eyes tell other stories
You'll never admit quite what they mean

Finding yourself in a glass bottle
Won't help you find your way

So I'm breaking down the walls
And I'm breaking down the barriers
And every night I lie awake
Thinking about how
To move that first
That first brick

Being known, doesn't grant authority
No matter how significant you may be
Does a line that hits below the belt
Get even close to make you see
You're another person who's lost at sea
With the same problems as anybody else
Who wants to show the world
Themselves externally

So I'm breaking down the walls
And I'm breaking down the barriers
And every night I lie awake
Thinking about how
To move that first
That first brick
