Tell me who are you to judge my life And who are you to tell me

What's wrong from right One day I'll learn my lesson

That's what they say And who is there to stop me

From getting in my own way I just wanted to be safe

Safe from the weight of the world I just wanted to be safe

Expectations they cripple my will I just wanted to be safe

From all your preconceptions And often misplaced aggressions

I'm building a wall to keep it all in I'm building it high, as high as it gets

And for it to fall, what's it gonna take To keep my peace

I'm building a wall to keep it all in I'm building it high, as high as it gets

And for it to fall, what's it gonna take

If it's this hard at 23 Lord only knows what's ahead of me

Who can I trust when it gets too deep It's hard to face that I'm the blame in the end

Bring the flame to an end No I don't want it out

I'm praying one day that I change in the end change in the end

I just wanted to be safe

Safe from the weight of the world I just wanted to be safe

Expectations they cripple my will I just wanted to be safe

From all your preconceptions And often misplaced aggressions

Let me be the exception

I just wanted to be safe

Safe from the weight of the world I just wanted to be safe

Expectations they cripple my will I just wanted to be safe

From all your preconceptions And often misplaced aggressions

I'm building a wall to keep it all in I'm building it high, as high as it gets

And for it to fall, what's it gonna take To keep my peace

I'm building a wall to keep it all in I'm building it high, as high as it gets

And for it to fall, what's it gonna take
