A cover of a song written by my friend Matthew Payne. Check out his work, including the original of this song, at matthewpayne.bandcamp.com

lyrics

i don’t even wanna mention how the howling winds
call for me to get started again
i won’t even say how the driving rain
rolls through me heart like a driving train
yeah at times like these i could tear through anything i found
you keep building up walls and i promise you i’ll break ‘em down

i got a call on my phone i got a message from the scene
said you’re too late boy go and find another dream
i heard a cry from behind me, it was my past
said you ain’t going nowhere, you’re only falling back
but i got a fever in my bones the kind the doctors don’t know nothing about
you keep building up walls and i promise you i’ll break ‘em down

it’s eyes like yours that make me wanna make a fire
to burn through the lies to make the flames go higher
i got a steel gun heart and a mouth for a trigger
i got a heavy handed hurt and a lot of fuckin anger
i could stand right here and make the whole world go blind
you keep building up walls but i promise you, i can climb

yeah i go up two or three i go down seven more
it’s been like this since way back before
i go right step step i go left step step
but anywhere you go you see the same old shit
this world wanna pay check this world wanna make rent oh
you keep building up walls and i promise you i’ll keep breaking ‘em down
you keep building up walls and i promise you i’ll break ‘em down
