  • How small do you
    Want me to be
    Weighed in the balance
    Left lonely
    So much can be
    Said through silence
    As hard as it seems
    All that we need
    Is too close to be seen

    Our lives
    You build your walls for me to climb
    A billion walls for me to climb
    You build your walls for me to climb

    Travels the very
    Nature we'll live in
    Seasons to cycles
    Children to men
    Mislead and misread
    Company or companion
    With all of our hearts
    We follow our dreams
    Slightly out of reach

    Our lives
    You build your walls for me to climb
    A billion walls for me to climb
    You build your walls for me to climb

    Our lives
    You build your walls for me to climb
    A billion walls for me to climb
    You build your walls for me to climb Writer/s: BRIAN VODINH, JESSE HASEK

  • James from Kansas City, Moi think this song is about a hard relationship going nowhere. the first line is "how small do you want me to be?" which to me seems like someone having complete control over a person. then the chorus, "you build your walls for me to climb," i think means that the person is being forced to do everything for this person, and being forced to climb walls.
  • Beth from Salem, OrThis is my favorite song by them, well... actually it's tied with "Through the Iris". I think it's funny how alot of there other songs everyone has their own idea of what the songs are about, because the words are so cryptic. This song however is straight forward and I love it so much! =)
