So, go ahead and lie to yourself
And pretend that you're a ray of light
When you're a broken candle
You keep in time with yourself
When did 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
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

[Speech:]
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
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 strife
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's capable of looking up and wishing on a star

So catchy, so contagious,
This day dreamers' 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 thing with music
When it hits, you feel no pain

No matter what you did
I promise, we forgave it
All that's left is your voice
You've got no choice
But to raise it

All your broken hearts
All your dejected dreams
Just let yourself be free
Because even broken wings can fly away
[End of speech]

Oh, 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
That 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
