Barriers Lyrics

Well I don't know how to say this right
And the words got me choking
I keep hitting 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 giving up
Didn't want to have to say it
All we doing 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
Just too many barriers

Now we've been dragging this whole thing out
But I can't wait any longer
Our love's burning down
Creeping in the doubt
We're not getting any stronger
I hear you say that we're doing ok
But, baby, I don't think so
Just can't do nothing, 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
Just too many barriers

That we keep running into
Been trying, but we just can't break through
I know I'm gonna keep wishing 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
Just too many barriers

In a hurry to get somewhere
And the road's trying to block you, block you
And you feel like you're nowhere
'Cause the world's trying to stop you, stop you

archuletta has dome it again =]] just one of those songs you could listen to over and over and never get tired of it <33

welll in my opinion it sounds like this song is about a couple who broke up before eaither of them were ready. now they wanna get back together but don't know how, they "can't do nothing; gotta do something" and theres "no use pretending they're all right" and now that they've put it off for so long, its gonna be hard getting bak together because now there's "too many barriers" they've created between each other

amazziiinngg song :)

i think its about david in a relationship where theres to many barriers in their lives together and too many issues. David wants to break up but the girl thinks they are doing fine....but "just cant do nothing gotta do something if we dont open up our eyes we're just pretending. well theres a time for giving up...". also their relationship isnt growing or getting ay stronger and they are both just holding each other back. thats how i interepret it :) haha
