I've seen different kinds of light In many different people Through many different signs And on the surface I walked away a thousand times Every time I thought I would do something right I've known a different kind of love That one you're frightened of And wish you'd never known But I don't want to run away without a fight I thought I would do something right You've built the walls around you 'Cause you're so afraid to fail They seem to almost reach the sun and far too high to scale You've built the walls around you Is it all about them now? Still you make believe that it's alright I've seen different kinds of light In many lovers' eyes As if they fear to shine Below the surface I've walked the shadows of my mind Every time I wish I could do something right I've known a different kind of love The kind that makes you whole A place where roots have grown And I don't want to run away into the night I wish I could do something right You've built the walls around you 'Cause you're so afraid to fail They seem to almost reach the sun and far too high to scale You've built the walls around you Is it all about them now? Still you make believe that it's alright It's alright, oh It's alright, oh It's alright, oh It's alright, oh
