[Verse 1]

Here you are again, you missed the mark again

It's getting dark

As you're piecin' up all of the pieces of

A hardened heart

But I thought I'd take a shot at love, it's all anyone is speaking of

At the moment

And I know that I had called you here, I just couldn't let you in, my dear

Am I broken?


[Chorus]

I built up these walls, oh, so goddamn tall

Now I can't see

How I wish they'd all crumble up and fall

But that one's on me


[Post-Chorus]

(That one's on me)

(That one's on me)

(That one's on me)


[Verse 2]

Another heart is scorned, another scar has formеd

A work of art

A vast collection of all of the could've-beens

Doomеd from the start

So lay on me another empty kiss, maybe a couple hundred more of this

I won't be dead inside

I never meant to turn and disappear, I just couldn't let you in, my dear

So I run and hide


[Chorus]

I built up these walls, oh, so goddamn tall

Now I can't see

How I wish they'd all crumble up and fall

But that one's on me

I built up these walls, oh, so goddamn tall

Now I can't see

How I wish they'd all crumble up and fall

But that one's on me

I built up these walls, oh, so goddamn tall

Now I can't see

How I wish they'd all crumble up and fall

But that one's on me
