lyrics

If you could look at who you are
Find the words to make it happen
Would you make it happen
I'm hearing your excuses
Separate the make believe
But all you see is you

I can crash down all the walls you see, yeah
I can take away the lies you breathe
You wouldn't have it any other way
You wouldn't have it any other way
I can open up the truth you need, yeah
I can free you from the chains you keep
You wouldn't have it any other way
You wouldn't have it any other way

You take all of these
Take and eat the world before you
Say it's built all for you
But I find myself so different
Looking at the things you do
Know I used to be just like you

I can crash down all the walls you see, yeah
I can take away the lies you breathe
You wouldn't have it any other way
You wouldn't have it any other way
I can open up the truth you need, yeah
I can free you from the chains you keep
You wouldn't have it any other way
You wouldn't have it any other way

You close your mind and what you feel
Believing lies doesn't make them real
You create this suffering and pain
You'll realise when it's far too late
Put yourself in what you do
Could you feel the way they do?
You stand back and just let it be
It's OK if it's not hurting me

Could you look them in the face
Knowing that it's only for a taste
Say that you are not to blame
You're the one holding the blade
Turn off your lights to make a change
Don't let a minute go to waste
It's only a life in this exchange
Let them see the smile on your

I'm pleading, I'm pleading
Oh mercy oh mercy rise
I'm pleading, I'm pleading
Oh mercy oh mercy rise
I'm pleading, I'm pleading
Oh mercy oh mercy rise

I can crash down all the walls you see, yeah
I can take away the lies you breathe
You wouldn't have it any other way
You wouldn't have it any other way
I can open up the truth you need, yeah
I can free you from the chains you keep
You wouldn't have it any other way
You wouldn't have it any other way
