Face to face but miles away
G D Em
Building trenches out of empty spaces
C G
Lay here, next to me
D Em
And close the distance in between

I'll take off yours if you take off mine
D Em
Reveal the things that we're trying to hide
C G
I'll take off yours if you take off mine
D
Take off mine
Chorus:
Em C G
Cause we can be beautiful without our war paint
D
Our war paint
Em C G
And we can have it all once we let our walls break
D
Our walls break
Em C
Why in the hell do we fight on the front line?
G D Em
When we both know that we're here on the same side
C G
We can be beautiful without the mistake
D
Of our war paint
Em C G D

Don't keep that barricade up

C G
I'll take off yours if you take off mine

Take off mine
Chorus:
Em C G
Cause we can be beautiful without our war paint

Our walls break

To my heart, here I am
