Passenger

When I built these walls with bricks and stones
I built them all around
I built these walls a long time ago
She ain t gonna take em down
No, she ain t gonna break em down
I built these walls with my two hands
I laid every single part
And behind these walls a [?] stands

Oh-oh-oh, and turn it round
See if I don t go up

When I built these walls around my chest

And broke it in her hands
Oh, she broke it in her hands

Oh-oh-oh-oh, and I suppose
If there s no rain clouds
Nothing grows
Oh-oh-oh, but this I know
If I don t get high
I won t get low
Oh-oh-oh, and I find her strange

But she could fall
Oh-oh-oh, she said, I won t change

Behind these walls
Behind these walls
Behind these walls
