They say that loving yourself Is loving someone else It's like you've always been right there When I needed you Pulling through the night Trying to get it right 'Cause this here life will test you Over and over and over again You keep giving me Something to believe in And I keep giving up 'Cause the walls are falling down You keep giving me Something to believe in And I keep giving up 'Cause the walls are falling down 'Cause the walls are falling down 'Cause the walls are falling down 'Cause the walls are falling down Is it impossible to be learned? Is it impossible to be taught? 'Cause anybody could get burned And anybody could get caught Standing in the night Trying to get it right 'Cause this here life will test you Over and over and over again You keep giving me Something to believe in And I keep giving up 'Cause the walls are falling down You keep giving me Something to believe in And I keep giving up 'Cause the walls are falling down 'Cause the walls are falling down 'Cause the walls are falling down 'Cause the walls are falling down 'Cause the walls are falling...

I was just waiting for something to believe in Something to come my way Spend my day staring to at the sky Trying to figure out what to say All this pain around me, why won't it go away? I'm tired, so tired of this My soul's too heavy and I can't carry it I'm tired, so tired of this Where did the kindness go? When did being good get old? It's hard sometimes, but I'm never going to give up on hope Everywhere I go there's holy men telling me what to do Every damn word coming out their mouths Well it never seems to be true All this noise and fury, it breaks my heart in two I'm tired, so tired of this My soul's too heavy and I can't carry it I'm tired, so tired of this Where did the kindness go? When did being good get old? It's hard sometimes, but I'm never going to give up on hope So for now I'm just doing my best to be kind You never know where a person has been or what they've left behind Beneath all this difference, we're just sharing time I'm tired, so tired of this My soul's too heavy and I can't carry it I'm tired, so tired of this Where did the kindness go? When did being good get old? It's hard sometimes, but I'm never going to give up on hope

When I was just a boy My momma told me, "Son You look so serious" (Smile and have some fun) When I was 17 My father let me know "Life isn't fun and games" (Gotta sell your soul) I don't know how I ended up So close to where I started I went to war for peace of mind What was it for? I'm dancing on a tightrope No time to mess around, oh Just trying to let my mind go I'm never coming dow-ow-own I found a preacher man To help me understand What we are doing here (What comes after life) And now the years have passed Been to the moon and back And all I've realized (No one knows but me) I don't (he don't) know how (know how) I ended up So close to where I started I went (he went) to war (to war) for peace of mind What was it for? I'm dancing on a tightrope No time to mess around, oh Just trying to let my mind go I'm never coming dow-ow-own I'm never coming dow-own I'm never coming dow-ow-own Teachers always say, "Stay in between the lines" "Promise you'll be quiet if you can't say something nice" Doctors always say, "Take these pills for your health" But now I can't remember how to think for myself I'm dancing on a tightrope No time to mess around, oh Just trying to let my mind go, ha I'm never coming dow-ow-own I'm never coming dow-own I'm never coming down (-ow-own)

Here at the party I came to alone Ramblers are rambling, you stared at your phone I'll stick around if you stick around too I wanna know why you hide in your head Where do you go when you glide down the stairs? I'll stick around if you stick around too You and I break out just a matter of time There's a reason we don't live forever Reason we don't live forever You and I break out just a matter of time There's a reason we don't live forever Reason we don't live forever You and I You and I You and I You and I Waking with you in the home that we've made Dishes are dirty and bills to be paid I'll stick around if you stick around too You and I break out just a matter of time There's a reason we don't live forever Reason we don't live forever You and I break out just a matter of time There's a reason we don't live forever Reason we don't live forever You and I You and I You and I You and I You and I You and I You and I You and I Now that we're older with gray in our hair Holding your hand as we glide down the stairs I'll stick around if you stick around too You and I break out just a matter of time There's a reason we don't live forever Reason we don't live forever You and I break out just a matter of time There's a reason we don't live forever Reason we don't live forever You and I You and I You and I You and I
