Lyrics
[Verse 1] I look up at the higher ones, Building castles out of lies, Writing stories for the world With a thousand alibis. They think the crown will keep them safe, Think their names can never fall, But even towers touch the ground When the cracks run through the walls. [Pre-Chorus] Maybe, maybe, I wonder… How long can shadows hide? You can silence every whisper, But you can’t stop the tide. [Chorus] The bigger they are, the harder they fall, No reputation can protect you from it all. Power can’t make a lie become the truth, And time has a way of bringing everything to light. You can build your kingdom high, You can wear your golden crown, But when the truth comes knocking, Every false wall comes down. The good will rise, the evil will fade, Truth keeps shining through the mess we made. [Verse 2] They can point their fingers outward, They can twist another name, They can hide behind their titles, They can play the perfect game. But the higher that you climb Doesn’t mean you’re standing tall, ‘Cause a throne built on deception Wasn’t built to last at all. [Bridge] Maybe I don’t need to fight, Maybe I just wait and see, ‘Cause truth doesn’t need a weapon To eventually break free. Let them laugh behind their walls, Let them think they’ve won tonight— Somewhere underneath the darkness, There is still a spark of light. [Final Chorus] The bigger they are, the harder they fall, No reputation can protect you from it all. Power can’t make a lie become the truth, And time has a way of bringing everything to light. You can build your kingdom high, You can wear your golden crown, But when the truth comes knocking, Every false wall comes down. The good will rise, the evil will fade— Truth survives the games they played. [Outro] Maybe… I wonder… Maybe that’s how it goes. The higher they build their towers, The farther they have to fall. And when the dust finally settles… Truth will be standing tall.
