The Walls That Divide - Carcer City

The lock of our bodies

Holding close through the seasons to become legendary

The clock wore us away

Left to a life of misery with these ghosts upon my back

That whisper your name in the dark

And it pierces right through me tonight

Straight through the heart

Eyes locked to the ceiling

I play the same motions in my mind

I cannot tear myself away from these hauntings

Behind the locking doors, I am writing my escape

Picking up the pieces this has reduced me to

Now the line is crossed, sick of living between you and the world

I need the close (I need to know) is this how you want this?

Are these fingertips outstretched for nothing?

I need the close, I need you

Or the chance to start anew

Speak to me

Bring down the walls that have divided us

If you believe this is worth saving like I do

Just a few words to instill the way things used to be

Like strangers meeting under lanterns

Like you never knew my face

If only I could bring you back to me

If only I could sever the strings

Bring down the walls that divide forever
