My Great Wall
Take a vow
Carry it to the grave
Fear and doubt
The eyes of a hurricane
I hold back these black emotions
And slam shut the door that's open
Never break the monster behind the mask
Secrets safe
This side of the looking glass
You don't want to see what's under
Under the surface
So brick by brick, I built it up
To isolate, to shut them out
But cracks run deep inside this vault
Can you tear it down?
Tear down my Great Wall
In this abyss, there's only room for one
Bottomless
Shadows devour the sun
You're too close to know what's sleeping
And I'll drag you down here with me
Through the barricades you crash
And my defense is fading fast
You're too close to know what's coming
But this is your warning
Brick by brick, I built it up
To isolate, to shut them out
But cracks run deep inside this vault
Can you tear it down?
Tear down my Great Wall
So I flash you a saccharine smile
Distract from my own exile
It's not safe in this skin
Hold my breath, keep it in
Count to ten 'til it's over
So brick by brick, I built it up
To isolate, to shut them out
But cracks run deep inside this vault
Can you tear it down?
Tear down my Great Wall
(Tear it down)
(Tear it down)
(Tear it down)
(Tear it down)
Carry it to the grave
Fear and doubt
The eyes of a hurricane
I hold back these black emotions
And slam shut the door that's open
Never break the monster behind the mask
Secrets safe
This side of the looking glass
You don't want to see what's under
Under the surface
So brick by brick, I built it up
To isolate, to shut them out
But cracks run deep inside this vault
Can you tear it down?
Tear down my Great Wall
In this abyss, there's only room for one
Bottomless
Shadows devour the sun
You're too close to know what's sleeping
And I'll drag you down here with me
Through the barricades you crash
And my defense is fading fast
You're too close to know what's coming
But this is your warning
Brick by brick, I built it up
To isolate, to shut them out
But cracks run deep inside this vault
Can you tear it down?
Tear down my Great Wall
So I flash you a saccharine smile
Distract from my own exile
It's not safe in this skin
Hold my breath, keep it in
Count to ten 'til it's over
So brick by brick, I built it up
To isolate, to shut them out
But cracks run deep inside this vault
Can you tear it down?
Tear down my Great Wall
(Tear it down)
(Tear it down)
(Tear it down)
(Tear it down)
