When I was young, and the world loomed over me
I built a fortress to keep me from harm
I sealed all the doorways, no one could get in
But now that the world and I are older
I find all my enemies within
And the sieges my castle walls were built for
Never came with the force I thought they would
And now that it's all over, I'm still locked inside
And oh, I'm so lonely
But the moat is still too wide
So please, hear me calling
And please, break down the door
'Cause I need you much more than the walls
And I can't hide here any more
From where I sit in my lonely parapet
I see the world as it passes me by
Though the battles are over
Oh, the walls, they still stand
And oh, I'm so lonely
For the touch of your hand
So please, hear me calling
And please, break down the door
'Cause I need you much more than the walls
And I can't hide here any more
So please, hear me calling
And please, break down the door
'Cause I need you much more than the walls
And I can't hide here any more
