Walls - Passenger

Well I built these walls with brick and stone

I built them all around

I built these walls a long time ago

She ain’t gonna take 'em down

No, she ain’t gonna break 'em down

I built these walls with my two hands

I laid every single part

And behind these walls a coward stands

With an ego and a broken heart

An ego and a broken heart

Oh-oh-oh-oh, she comes around

Said if I don’t get lost

I won’t get found

Oh-oh-oh, and I turn it 'round

Said if I don’t go up

I won’t come down

I won’t come down

Well I built these walls around my chest

I built them thick and strong

Oh, and she can try her very best

But they’ve been here for too long

For long ago there was a girl

That stood there where she stands

And she reached right in and took my heart

And broke it in her hands

Oh, she broke it in her hands

Oh-oh-oh-oh, and I suppose

If there’s no rain clouds

Then nothing grows

Oh-oh-oh, but this I know

If I don’t get high

I won’t get low

Oh-oh-oh, and I find her strange

She wants to climb up

Where she could fall

Oh-oh-oh, she said if I don’t change

Then I’ll live and die

Behind these walls

Behind these walls

Behind these walls
