Full Version[]
Woah! Yeah!
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
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
B-b-b-break down the walls, yeah
Change
You can fight it inside
Think don't have the strength that it takes
Oh and truth
You can twist and resist it
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
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
Go on and watch them tumble down
Feel all the doubt
Just crumble now
And let the light come pouring in
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
C'mon 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
Episode Version[]
Whoa, yeah
Stop hiding out in the shadows
Scared to show the world you exist
Don't hesitate 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
And break down the walls
Whoa
Don't be afraid to let things fall
Break down the walls
Whoa
Yeah you can dare to have it all
Come on and give it everything you got
Take a chance, make a stand, and break (break!) break down the walls
Whoa
Break down the walls
Yeah
Break down the walls...
