So go ahead and lie to yourself,
And pretend that you're a ray of light when you're a broken candle
You're keeping time with yourself,
When'd it all start moving way too fast for you to handle?
You're short on breath, heavy on time,
You lost the words, but you found the rhyme
It's all just poetry now
The walls are singing, "hallelujah, amen."
The walls are singing, "hallelujah, amen."
It's so dark in the room, and the ceilings are high,
You know the feeling, you've been here before,
And it's a broken old pew, and it's an echoing cry,
Don't sell yourself
Short on breath, heavy on time,
You lost the words but you found the rhyme
It's all just poetry now
The walls are singing, "hallelujah, amen."
The walls are singing, "hallelujah, amen."
Hallelujah, amen.
The walls are singing, "hallelujah, amen."
See, we don't really care who you are,
We've kind of got this non-exclusive policy of determining exactly
Who we open up to and let into our family
And then who becomes a part of our united mass of harmony
And that's kind of become the thesis to this song
Through suffering, acceptance, grief, and strif
There's no way that your puzzle piece fits into our puzzle wrong,
'Cause everyone is welcome on this stage that we call life
And we don't really care who you are
Everyone is capable, I'm looking up and wishing on a star
So catch it, so contagious, this day-dreamer's disease
And hope can be your sword, slaying darkness with belief
And we don't really care who you are,
Regardless of how lost you are returning from, regardless of how far,
So bring me all the worst of your broken, bruised, insane,
Because that's the things with music, when it hits, you feel no pain,
No matter what you did, I promise we forgave it,
When all that's left is your voice, you've got no choice but to raise it,
All you broken hearts, all you dejected dreams,
Just let yourself be free because even broken wings can fly away
In time you'll find, this life's a painting and you're the artist,
Just open your eyes, it's never too late to clear your canvas,
So paint me jealous, paint me rage, for god's sake paint me anything, just paint.
Your brush awaits
And the walls are singing hallelujah amen.
Yeah we're all just singing hallelujah amen.
Let your walls keep singing hallelujah amen.
Oh come on keep singing hallelujah amen.
The walls are singing hallelujah amen.
The walls sing you to sleep hallelujah amen.
One secret meant to keep you safe tonight.
I swear that everything will be alright
