Do I disappoint you?
Was I not enough to please you after all?
But here is to my promise kept, that I may live and not regret at all
Contentment my friend
How long has it been? How long has it been?
Right between alive and living
I survived by forgiving all
Words without communication, as my humble expectations fall
Commitment my friend
Where have you been?
Even heroes have to fall
Every diamond has its flaw…
You and I we have this wall…
We can tear it down now
We can tear it down…
And that’s the beauty of it all
Funny how we never saw this coming
Or we just ignored the signs
Now learning from the past is really all that I can ask of you and I
You still have my heart
You still have soul
Even heroes have to fall
Every diamond has its flaw
You and I we have this wall
But we can tear it down now
We can tear it down…
And that’s the beauty of it all
So what are you afraid of?
Hiding from the truth
Open up you heart and show me that you care
It’s time to stop pretending
Even heroes have to fall
Every diamond has its flaw
You and I we have this wall
But we can tear it down now
We can tear it down
Sometimes weakness makes us strong
Let’s just admit that we were wrong
You and I, we built this wall
But we can tear it down now…
We can tear it down
And that’s the beauty of it all...
