Jericho

Jericho
Jericho
Jericho
Jericho

These walls were not built hollow
On a skeleton or frame
The mortar of resentfulness
Can bear a heavy weight

Brick by brick I laid them thick
Bound by all my pain
My bitterness, etched in stone
I know my bricks by name

I built these walls
Don't you think I know how
Strong they are
I built these walls
Don't you think I know how
Hard they fall

Impossible to climb
Took time stack them high
A tower for my heart to hide away

Though built for my protection
You came in expecting
Doors wide open to you night and day

I built these walls
Don't you think I know how
Tall they are
I built these walls
Don't you think I know how
Far you'd fall

I built these walls
Don't you think I know how
Tall they are
I built these walls
Don't you think I know how
Far you'd fall

Been wounded one too many times
To handle giving second tries
Who knew when love grew from the ground
It broke my strongest walls down

Built these walls
Built these walls
Built these walls

Built these walls
Built these walls
Built these walls
