Lyrics

Now the walls I’ve built don’t seem so strong
Starting to feel as if I might just belong
You give me hope that I can carry on
Write it down, pour it out in a song

Walls like fences never last forever
They separate the pain from the pleasure
On the other side, it’s always better
I sent a mail today, another love letter to you

In touch with feelings I didn’t know I had
You pick me up when I’m feeling sad
When I’m fuming, you turn down the mad
You’re the only one who understands me at all

Now the walls I’ve built don’t seem so strong
Starting to feel as if I might just belong
You give me hope that I can carry on
Write it down, pour it out in a song
Write it down, pour my heart out in a song

I love the melodies in this - the vocal is so good - and even with just a guitar backing it feels pretty complete and isn't diminished by not having additional augmentation. I envy the ability to be able to create something this 'big' sounding with just a voice and guitar. The lyrics are really nicely done - heartfelt and hit home because of that.
