Just looking for critique on the songwriting - thanks :)

Recorded live take of vocals and guitar in one mic and harmonies added in post - so very raw/rough again.

Lyrics:
Aren’t you tired on building
boxes to put people in
Judging by names and skins
and places where lives begin

Aren’t you tired
Aren’t you lonely
Looking out from within
It all looks so exhausting
Your compartmentalising

How would you feel
To be defined
Do you know of the things we could achieve
If you’d only open your mind

And, Let down your walls
Let people in
Let down your walls
Let love win

Are you scared of what you don’t know
Of the things that you’ve been told
Ignorance is blissful
But kindness defeats it all

How would you feel
To be defined
Do you know of the things we could achieve
If you’d only open your mind

Don’t build a wall
Walls don’t solve a thing
Please don’t build a wall
Walls solve nothing

So let down your walls
Let people in
Let down your walls
Let people in, Let Love win, Let people in,
Let love win, Let people in

Very nice!
I really like your writing/musical style. All of your tracks have a very sweet natural sound!
