Daniel Hartshorn - Walls

Do you remember nights out on the coast
Who drank the most
You lost your footing on the track, left grass stains down your back
And I was so far gone I couldn't see

Fell and grazed my knee
And as the morning took my memory
You dragged me to the beach and I cried
Oh, I laughed so much I cried

And I remember how you pulled up close
And asked me to sing
I recall the scent of lavender was laced upon your skin
And in the haze of neon lights

As I kissed you at night
I thought that I saw a promise in your eyes
I thought I knew you well
I was lying to myself

No, I never asked you to stay
And it broke my heart that we left that way
I'm not the only one to blame
Cause you never came around

And we never showed fight
To pick those pieces from the ground
Oh, we never made a sound
And after all these years

Those walls are coming down
Well, I returned to Dragon's Cove
A place I called my home
You'd hide behind your paranoia

Ember, fire and smoke
And there's a darkness inside
Conspiracy, lies
And in the heat of the moment

You wished away my life and I died
At least part of me died
No, you never asked me to stay
And it broke my heart that we left that way

You're not the only one to blame
Cause I never came around
No, I never showed fight
To pick those pieces from the ground

Oh, I never made a sound
And after all these years
Those walls are coming down
Oh

I'm so sorry for those words
I never meant to hurt you
But you hurt me too
I know we never meant to fight

It doesn't make it right
But I guess that's just life
I guess that's just life
No, I never asked you to stay

And it broke my heart that we left that way
You're not the only one to blame
Cause you never came around
No, you never showed fight

To pick those pieces from the ground
Oh, I never made a sound
And after all these years
Those walls are coming down

No, I never asked you to stay
And it broke my heart that we left that way
I'm not the only one to blame
Cause you never came around

No, you never showed fight
To pick those pieces from the ground
Oh, we never made a sound
And after all these years

Those walls are coming down
