[Verse 1]
We were like hearts of dynamite
A couple of sparks left to ignite
Why did we flicker and die?
Now our words are sharp little knives
For our conversations dulled and dried
Can’t carve my way through your mind
Now line by line
Brick by brick I try
[Chorus]
I try to decorate the walls you build
I try to knock ‘em all down but still
I’m the one who falls
I’m the one who falls saying let me in
In our war of words and faults, I’ll paint a peace sign on your wall
Yeah, yeah
In our war of words and faults, I’ll paint a peace sign on your wall
[Verse 2]
So is it safe to roam outside?
Now that our garden grows landmines
Just let me back in your eyes
Years go by
Tick by tick so why
[Chorus]
Do I decorate the walls you build?
I try to knock ‘em all down but still
I’m the one who falls
I’m the one who falls saying let me in
In our war of words and faults, I’ll paint a peace sign on your wall
Yeah, yeah
In our war of words and faults, I’ll paint a peace sign on your wall
[Bridge]
When ‘I love you’ is lost in translation
And emotional graffiti is written on our faded faces
[Outro]
In our war of words and faults, I’ll paint a peace sign on your wall
Yeah, yeah
In our war of words and faults, I’ll paint a peace sign on your wall
Yeah, yeah
In our war of words and faults, I’ll paint a peace sign on your wall
Yeah, yeah
In our war of words and faults, I’ll paint a peace sign on your wall
