Climbing for so long
I’m way too tired of it now
Built them up so high
It’s too far to fall down
We all build these walls
Thinking that they’ll protect us
What if they do the exact opposite?
Hurt us by leaving us with us with no trust?
Or maybe they keep us
From having fun
They hold us hostage behind them
Like a crazed thief with a gun
Sometimes we let them
Sometimes it feels okay
Sometimes we love them
Sometimes it’s the only way
Like when she told me
She didn’t want a boyfriend
That was a wall I almost made it over
But after a year of climbing, I didn’t.
Or when my friends tell me
They just can’t fuck with what I like
That’s just a wall named prejudice
That’s just too far for me to hike
Or when my pop blows up on me
When he screams and shouts
I know it’s just a wall he’s built
He wants to let his stress out
I too have my own wall
And it’s one that nearly invincible
My music and my headphones.
Breaking it down is unachievable
But one day I’ll let it down
When I can handle the pain
But until that day, headphones in
Everything remains the same
But I just wanna break them all down
Cause I fell off a few & I’m sick of the fall
My dream is that we all can live a life
Without these barriers, these walls.
