Walls

We're stubborn and we're prideful

Don't need nobody else

We'd rather get our tooth pulled

Than ever ask for help

And that's always served us well

Until right now

But our way of life is dyin'

And we haven't got a prayer

The truth is, I'd be lyin'

If I said I wasn't scared

To go and let the outside in

Even if it turns us inside out

We build walls

Around our homes, around our hearts

Built 'em tall

So what's inside won't fall apart

But if we just stay here in limbo

We could lose it all

So I'm lookin' for a window

Not a wall

We only see the danger

In places we have been

We never think a stranger

Could ever be a friend

But every friend you've got

Is someone that you didn't used to know

So why build walls

Around our homes, around our hearts?

We just stay small

Always thinking we're so smart

But that story's gotta end, though

Or we could lose it all

So I'm lookin' for a window

Not a wall

A window lets the sunshine in

Summer wind

Maybe even a new friend

And with a little hope and a little help

Maybe we just might save ourselves

After all

If we could find a window

Not a wall

If we could find a window

Not a wall
