Barrier Lyrics by Greg X. Volz

The River Is Rising

0

Been watchin' you
Listenin' to your velvet words
Funny how a little spark starts a fire
Seems like you've forgotten
That we were brothers in the fight
Like a pup at your heels
I wanna know what's come between us

It's a barrier
A wall of doubt
Mistrust and confusion
A barrier
You're throwin' me a crust
When I'm starvin' for a meal
A barrier
I think I know you
But I come away wonderin'
If we could only find a way
To step across that line
And break the barrier

Yeah, you told me
Don't wanna feel the labor pains
Just wanna see the child
And keep on walkin'
But you're in this too
Somehow I gotta get to you
All the jazzin' is fine
Can't we just cut it to the bone?

And break the barrier
This wall of doubt
Mistrust and confusion
A barrier
I'm shakin' my head
As I hang up the phone
A barrier
I think I know ya
But I come away wonderin'
If we could only find away
To step across that line

A touch of fear
And a pre-conceived notion
Really don't mean to accuse you
Can't talk that way
'Cause it's not in style
Just wanna reach you
A cloud of semantics
In a sky of options
Don't cha think I know your joy
And feel your pain
To go ten feet gotta walk a mile
Because I love you
I wanna get it right

Break the barrier
A wall of doubt
Mistrust and confusion
A barrier
Together we could turn it
Into a door
A barrier
I think I know you
Well enough to say
Together we can find a way
To step across that line

Break the barrier
And break the barrier
Break the barrier
And break the barrier
