He puts on a face

And walks out through the door

What lies behind the mask

He's trying to ignore

Inside he holds a child

That one he used to be

But is no more



She lives in a fairy tale

Her life's not what it seems

She's just a paper doll

Like in the magazines

Trying so hard to hide

The bitter pain she feels

But it won't go away

She knows that it's so real



Run

But there's nowhere to hide

Run

From what you feel inside

Jesus is all we really need

He can release us

And set the captives free

He wants to

Tear down the walls



He walks up to the grave

In memory of the dead

He thinks of all the things

He wished that he had said

So now he lives to bear

The weight of all his guilt

Within the confines of the walls

That he has built



Tear down the walls

Tear down the walls



Run

But there's nowhere to hide

Run

From what you feel inside

Jesus is all we really need

He can release us

And set the captives free

He wants to free us

If we would just believe

And let Him

Tear down the walls
