Downriver Collective - Walls Lyrics

I've learned to be concerned with where I place my trust
So I took it off the shelf and packed it up
The table's set, the floor is swept And no one's walking up these steps
But who's to say if in the end
That I'd let them in
Or turn my back again
I don't know why you started knocking on my door
Each time I find myself giving more
It's been so long since I built up these four walls
Hoping they would keep it all out
Would you knock 'em down
Would you knock 'em down
I'm standing at the door with these tears now in my eyes
Quiet rings throughout these dusty halls
I locked myself inside but there's no where and there's no why
I'm only feeling lonely with these walls
You came into the room and let in all the light
Knew I'd see much more if I'd just raise the blinds
The shadows faded into drywall painted blue
And for years I'd match the colors of the room
Till you changed my every hue
Something no one else could do
I'm standing at the door with these tears now in my eyes
Quiet rings throughout these dusty halls
I'd locked myself inside but there's no where and there's no why
There's no more feeling lonely with these walls
Brick by brick and board by board
I know what I'm now living for
The only thing now left are bones
The sunlight in my window
The birds are in the air
And now I'm home
Ooh
