I try to believe in you
That your words were sincere
I try to think we were all in this together
But now I feel I am here alone
Because your afraid of letting go
Afraid of letting someone else shine
Its too bad it has to end up like this
Walls built out of insecurity
I try to believe that we could all
Support each other maybe even
Love each other live happily ever after
Just like the end of a fairy tale story
But now I feel I am on my own
Because if you had it your way
I wouldn't be here at all
And all you can find are my faults
All these walls
Built on fear
All these walls
Built on doubt
all these walls
Built on insecurity
All these walls
Built on fear
All these walls
Just tear us apart
All these walls
Just make us so small
All these walls
Just make us so small
If you look hard enough
You can find enough to
Justify your lack of support
To confirm your fear and doubt
Its too bad I thought that maybe
This was the real thing
That ideal dream of a world
In which we could really
Support each other rather then
Tear each other down just like
They want us to
I can't sit in the middle of this
This is not what I believe in
I believe in overcoming and rising above
Insecurity fear and doubt
for these are the things that keep us
So small and seperated from each other
For until we can let go of the i
We cannot see what really is
Beyond the surface the skin
Beyond the names and faces
I thought we were on a mission together
Not against each other?
I thought we were here to help each other
Not find reasons to disprove each other?
I thought there was more then this...
All these walls
Built on fear
All these walls
Built on doubt
all these walls
Built on insecurity
All these walls
Built on fear
All these walls
Just tear us apart
All these walls
Just make us so small
All these walls
Just make us so small
If we can't have each others backs
If we can't overcome our own fear
If we can't speak the truth
How are we ever going to get out of here
If we can't get over our own
Projections and Perspectives
Out of our own Boxes and over the walls
How are we ever going to get out of here alive
And I still believe we can
I still believe we can
and I still believe we can
crush these walls and overcome this all
I still believe we can
I still believe we can
crush these walls and overcome this all
but are you here with me
or trying to find reasons against me
cause I still believe
I still believe
Even though its hard to continue on
Standing on a stage feeling alone
Knowing around me the enemy seeks
To undermine the light
To overcome the love
to crush us all and tear us apart
Make us hate each other
Rather then love one another
I am standing here and maybe
I don't look the way you want me too
I don't sound the way you want me too
But if you could see past the surface
If you could understand there is more to this
Then that if you could see that we are
All really in this together
And I still believe we can
I still believe we can
and I still believe we can
crush these walls and overcome this all
I still believe we can
I still believe we can
crush these walls and overcome this all
but are you here with me
or trying to find reasons against me
cause I still believe
I still believe
All these walls
Built on fear
All these walls
Built on doubt
all these walls
Built on insecurity
All these walls
Built on fear
All these walls
Just tear us apart
All these walls
Just make us so small
All these walls
Just make us so small
