Lyrics[]
[Intro]
Wa-oh! Yeah!
[Verse 1]
Stop, Hiding out in the shadows
Scared to show the world you exist
Don't lock yourself in the darkness
The world is so much brighter than this
Yeah, if you never take a shot
You're never gonna win
So turn it all around
[Chorus]
And break down the walls, whoa
Don't be afraid to let them fall
Break down the walls whoa
And you can dare to have it all
Come on and give it everything you can
Take a chance, make a stand
And break, break, break down the walls
Break down the walls, yeah
[Verse 2]
Change
You can find it inside it
You don't have the strength that it takes
Oh with dreams
You can twist every system
Or finally, look it straight in the face
'Cause if you never take a shot, you're never gonna win
So find a way somehow
[Chorus]
To break down the walls, whoa
Don't be afraid to let them fall
Break down the walls, whoa
And you can dare to have it all
Come on and give it everything you can
Take a chance, make a stand
And break, break, break down the walls
[Bridge]
Don't wanna watch them tumble down
Feel all the doubt
Just crumble now
And let the light come pouring in
[Chorus]
Just break down the walls, whoa
Don't be afraid to let them fall
Break down the walls, whoa
And you can dare to have it all
Come on and give it everything you can
Take a chance, make a stand
And break, break, break down the walls, whoa
Break down the walls, whoa
Break down the walls, whoa
Come on and take a chance, make a stand
And break, break, break down the walls!
