Barriers Lyrics by Aereogramme

Barriers

I thought the fight was over
All battles won
I thought you lit your blind folds
And watched them burn
I thought that I could show you
All that I've found
But these barriers dictate all sight and all sound

I found love in the loneliest places
Places I shouldn't be found
I found love in the home of a sinner
Wrapped in some bitter sweet song
So let me tell the truth
And let me come alive
Let me build bridges
Into your life
I'm sick of being born again and again
I don't need conditions to let you in

Have you noticed how we talk
And how we play our games
A leather-bound appeal
To change our ways
All I wanted was to show you
All that I've found
No answers, no exits, no prophecy a pound

I found love in the loneliest places
Places I shouldn't be found
I found love in the home of a sinner
Wrapped in some bitter sweet song
So let me tell the truth
Let me come alive
Let me build bridges
Into your life
I'm sick of being born again and again
I don't need conditions to let you in

I found love in the loneliest places
Places I shouldn't be found
I found love in the home of a sinner
Wrapped in some bitter sweet song
So let me tell the truth
And let me come alive
Let me build bridges
Into your life
I'm sick of being born again and again
I don't need conditions to let you in

I never meant to hurt you
Or drive you away
The barriers we've built;
Looks like they're here to stay
