These Walls

Built walls to keep everyone out and became king of an empty hall. A song about isolation, finally digging deep, and tearing the walls down so you don't die alone.

Lyrics
You don't know the roads I've walked
You just open that mouth and talk
Like you've seen the storms I've faced
Well, let me show you a different place
Have you ever felt that kind of fear?
Been so lost and insecure, like I've been here
I built these walls,
Behind them I'm the king
Alone in these halls,
Drowning in my whiskey swing
I don't wear no crown,
So I'll leave this throne
Tear these walls down
'Cause I won't die alone
Over and over, tried to hold it in
Traveled every town to start again
Living on my own, but it wasn't enough
Had to dig real deep, find out where it all came from
Now I'm rising, yeah, I'm reborn
I built these walls,
Behind them I'm the king
Alone in these halls,
Drowning in my whiskey swing
I don't wear no crown,
So I'll leave this throne
Tear these walls down
'Cause I won't die alone
Under the moonlight, I hear a whisper low
Telling me it's time to let the old pain go
Every scar, every fall, led me to this road
I'm not afraid to carry this heavy load
I built these walls,
Behind them I'm the king
Alone in these halls,
Drowning in my whiskey swing
I don't wear no crown,
So I'll leave this throne
Tear these walls down
'Cause I won't die alone
