Walls
clean and white and unblemished
Building walls
big and strong and impenetrable
Building walls around the truth
hides it from view
Keeps it in the dark
doesn’t make it stop existing
The truth kept in the closet never ceases being true
it’s simply the truth in the dark
-
Freedom comes
when the truth sees the light
Shine through the hole you broke in the wall
the hole you broke in the wall
-
Walled up is not safety
it’s hiding
You deserve a life without walls
open and free and yours
No boundaries or walls or or gospel
holding you back
From seeing the truth
-
walls make us no safer than those on the other side
Those we're trying to keep out
because at the end of the day
Whether you're on the inside or the outside
you'll end up staring
At a wall
