[Verse 1]

Grab yourself a pen and paper

Write your name and number down

So when they try and take your memories

You can join the lost and found

I don't wanna dig your diamonds

I don't wanna string your pearls

I bet you ain't down for dyin'

Just to find your place in the world

 

[Pre-Chorus]

Beside me

My shadow grows

Beside me

 

[Chorus]

So, build a bridge, build a wall

Build 'em big, build 'em small

It's everyone and no one at all

Out of sight, out of mind

Playin' God all the time

Buried in the weight of it all

 

[Verse 2]

Bruises on a generation

Bandages to hide the truth

Swimming through a drunken history

Drowning out the wastеd youth

Borderline psychotherapy

Undеrline your symptoms for me

I don't know where you're coming from

And I don't know where you're gonna sleep

 

[Pre-Chorus]

Beside me

My shadow grows

Beside me

 

[Chorus]

So, build a bridge, build a wall

Build 'em big, build 'em small

It's everyone and no one at all

Out of sight, out of mind

Playin' God all the time

Buried in the weight of it all

 

[Bridge]

Am I coming home?

Am I coming home?

Or am I alone?

 

[Pre-Chorus]

Beside me

My shadow grows

Beside me

 

[Chorus]

So, build a bridge, build a wall

Build 'em big, build 'em small

It's everyone and no one at all

Out of sight, out of mind

Playin' God all the time

Buried in the weight of it all

In the weight of it all

In the weight of it all
