Text: David Archuleta. David Archuleta. Barriers.
Well, I don't know how to say this right
And the words got me chokin'
I keep hittin' this wall, it's never gonna fall
And we're still broken
This mountain we've been trying to climb
It's never ending
Just can't do nothing, gotta do something
'Cause if we don't open up our eyes
We're just pretending
Well, there's a time for givin' up
Didn't want to have to say it
All we doin' is building walls
And now there's too many barriers
Here we are, lying here
It's our last final goodnight
Just because it feels so good
No use pretending we're alright
Too many locks, too many crimes
Too many tears, too many lies
Too many barriers
Oh, just too many barriers
Now we've been draggin' this whole thing out
But I can't wait any longer
Our love's burning down, creepin' in the doubt
We're not getting any stronger
I hear you say that we're doin' okay
But, baby, I don't think so
Just can't do nothin', gotta do something
'Cause if I don't get into my car
I won't go very far
Well, there's a time for giving up
Didn't want to have to say it
All we're doing is building walls
Now there's too many barriers
Here we are, lying here
It's our last final goodnight
Just because it feels so good
No use pretending we're alright
Too many locks, too many crimes
Too many tears, too many lies
Too many barriers, too many barriers
Just too many barriers
That we keep running into
Been tryin' but we just can't break through
I know I'm gonna keep wishin' I was with you
But we just gotta stop
Here we are, lying here
It's our last final goodnight
Just because it feels so good
No use pretending we're alright
Too many locks, too many crimes
Too many tears, too many lies
(Too many barriers)
In your hurry to get somewhere
(Too many barriers)
And the world's tryin to block you, block you
And you feel like you're nowhere
'Cause the world's tryin' to stop you, stop you
(Too many barriers)
In your hurry to get somewhere
And the world's tryin' to block you, block you
(Just too many barriers)
And you feel like you're nowhere
'Cause the world's tryin' to stop you, stop you
And the words got me chokin'
I keep hittin' this wall, it's never gonna fall
And we're still broken
This mountain we've been trying to climb
It's never ending
Just can't do nothing, gotta do something
'Cause if we don't open up our eyes
We're just pretending
Well, there's a time for givin' up

It's our last final goodnight

No use pretending we're alright
Too many locks, too many crimes
Too many tears, too many lies
Too many barriers
