I built up the walls one break at a time.
We broke down the walls one brick at a time.
But infatuation cuts quick and you sharpen the knife.
A smile can only get you so far, blue eyed suicide.
I was willing to throw it all away but you couldn't decide.
A smile can only get you so far, blue eyed suicide.
These walls will be higher next time you try to break them and break in.
Your existence it burns my eyes.
Everytime I try and close them.
I thought that things were different this time around.
I thought I found someone who meant what they said.
Beyond four letters, beyond four letters.
I guess I thought that things were different this time around
I thought I found someone who meant what they said.
Beyond four letters, beyond four letters.
I guess I thought that things were different this time around
We broke down the walls one brick at a time.

Beyond four letters, beyond four letters.

I built up the walls one break at a time.
We broke down the walls one brick at a time.
I'm not a fan of the whole scapegoat-seeking part of a breakup, it reminds me of the Berlin Wall and how it took such a long time for the wall to break down, but only because people were too stubborn to work together?
On a better note, I fucken love this part of the song:
I thought I found someone who meant what they said.
Beyond four letters, beyond four letters.
It's both happy and sad at the same time - that the guy has had the opportunity to feel like that, to find someone authentic, yet at the same time a bit wrenching that he was wrong:
"I thought that things were different this time around."
Since I have a feeling that the word different is something negative?
and the whole chorus is one of my favorites out of any song.
