Building Walls Songtext
von Old Again

I′ve got a grey sky state of mind
I've learned to live without the sun
Rainy thoughts and northwest dreams
A lonely creature on the run
I′ve got some feelings that I can't hide
And I regret some things that I have done
I'm a liar, thief, and vagabond
A scared child, a bastard son
And I lost myself

Take me from everything
I′m a stranger to the way that we choose to live
Break me to set me free
I′ve been building walls to keep myself locked in


Where did my mind go?
Where did the time go?
I'm stuck somewhere between self-hatred and denial
Show me what I need
Give my life meaning
I′m starting to think you might see some things that I don't see
You might see some things that I don′t see

Take me from everything
I'm a stranger to the way that we choose to live
Break me to set me free
I′ve been building walls to keep myself locked in
Take me from everything
I'm a stranger to the way that we choose to live
Break me to set me free
I've been building walls to keep myself locked in

′Cause I′m a waste of time
And I'm a waste of breath
Please tell me that you′re mine
You're all that I have left
′Cause I'm a waste of time (I′m hurting, I'm hurting)
And I'm a waste of breath (It′s all my own fault)
Please tell me that you′re mine (So I'm)
You′re all that I have left (I'm running out of breath)
I can′t open my eyes (But I don't know how)
I′ve got weight on my chest
You sure make it hard to figure out what happens next


Take me from everything
I'm a stranger to the way that we choose to live
Break me to set me free
I've been building walls to keep myself locked in
Take me from everything
I′m a stranger to the way that we choose to live
Break me to set me free
I′ve been building walls to keep myself locked in
