Walls Video (MV)

I want to be the one to hold you on a saturday night
I want to be the one to break through the dust and all
The walls you keep behind
All the walls you've built up high
There are reasons why they're there
There are reasons why they're unassailable
But darling watch me as I try
Go on and watch me as I try
And try and try and try and try and try
For every life I've left behind that has
Led me to your door
Through fire and flood
In the endless pouring of
Trauma that I will not pass on
Trauma that I will not pass on
Trauma that I will not pass on
I want to be the one to hold you when the world burns
I want to be the one to look through the smoke and say f*ck it
As the whole thing goes up in flames
And the last thing we say will be each other's names
I will not go to war over water
I will not go to war over water
And neither will my sons
Sending postcards from warships home to their mums
Well anything that comes our way we can carry
Anything that comes our way we can carry it all
And if it gets too heavy
We can slow down
Swap high-speed for steady
Love that we can just pass on
The love that we can just pass on
The love that we could just pass on
I want to be the one you turn to, and tell me
Honey I get the feeling there's something good here
The feeling there's something worth holding on to
And I will hold on with you
I'll go anywhere that you'll go
Anywhere you'll go
'Cos honey I get the feeling
You could use a little spark
Well I have practised silence and I have hurled my screams
And spent years in circles going through the same routines
So I weaved through the tapestries of schemes and extremes
But all I ever learned in faking high self-esteem
Is that love doesn't need to be any f*cking harder than it seems
'Cos it seemed i'd bow down and give up on these dreams
But darling we should never, ever, ever let go of these things
(And if you hold on I will not let you let go of these things)
And I will not see yours stutter and stumble and falter
There is something within us that does not need an altar
So pick yourself up from the floor
Go on and pick yourself up from the floor, and meet me
Open-armed and heavy
Maybe we are right where we're meant to be already
So stand your ground and hold
Stand your ground and hold
Go on, and stand your ground and hold
'Cos honey I get the
Feeling there's something good here
The feeling there's something worth going to
And I will go there with you
And we will speak with words unspoken
Speak with words unspoken
So just turn the lights off
And we'll go dancing in the dark
So I will try and try and try and try and try
For every life I've left behind that has
Led me to your door
Through fire and flood, in the endless pouring of
Trauma that I will not pass on
Trauma that I will not pass on
Trauma that I will not pass on
