Grennan, Tom - Barbed Wire Lyrics






A young man who wants to go home
From a youthless man who's walked a lonely road
And no fear of thinking up his dreams
He holds himself together with these barbed wire games

Oh we stand together, we fall
Just know that belief conquers all

So don't let people hold you back
Gotta stand tall and aim higher
Don't touch the barbed wire
I say don't so don't let people hold you back
Gotta stand tall and aim higher
Don't touch the barbed wire, touch the barbed wire

And watch him grow into a shell of a man
Every thing is taking shape and going to plan
Life can turn around
One step forward, two steps back
He's lost in the crowd

Oh we stand together, we fall
Just know that belief conquers all

So don't let people hold you back
Gotta stand tall and aim higher
Don't touch the barbed wire
I say don't so don't let people hold you back
Gotta stand tall and aim higher
Don't touch the barbed wire, touch the barbed wire

If you walk in your shadow
Led by shepards then you know
If you walk in your shadow
If you walk in your shadow
Led by shepards then you know
If you walk in your shadow

So don't let people hold you back
Gotta stand tall and aim higher
Don't touch the barbed wire
I say don't so don't let people hold you back
Gotta stand tall and aim higher
Don't touch the barbed wire, touch the barbed wire

  1. h.... j....

    Ahhh tom you have a voice of a fkn angel💙

  2. N.... K....

    Tom I loved your non pornographic videos... Please don't ever start with it like soo many others did!
    The world needs more musicians like you... songs with heart and soul ♥️ Thank you so much

  3. T.... ....

    Best song! Amazing artist! So underrated! :)

  4. s.... ....

    Repeat, repeat! It sounds great

  5. l.... d....

    Loved the lyrics... and one of the best songs i've heard

  6. C.... ....

    This is on the cd that plays in my work and whenever it comes on it’s such a bop, the customers laugh at me because I’m always bobbing behind the till 😂 I’m now obsessed with this song!

    C.... ....

    Same. I literally had to use Shazam during my break to finally find this song.

  7. m.... m....

    So when he says don't touch the barbed wire....is he saying that to others or the person being held together with the barbed wire?


    And what would happen if the person themselves or someone else touches the barbed wire?

  8. L.... f....

    Just seen him at a festival absolutely love him ✌️

  9. K.... 6....

    Accidentally stumbled onto a clip of Tom's and now I'm hooked. Love the raw edge to your voice, Tom. Keep the songs coming.

    K.... 6....

    Same here😍

    N.... I....

  13. G.... R....

    honestly such a bop

  14. H.... D....

    Young man, but wise to the bone
    From a youthless man who’s walked a lonely road
    And no fear of picking up Daddy’s traits
    He holds himself together with these barbed wire gates

    Alone, we stand together we fall
    Slow, that belief conquers all

    So don’t let people hold you back
    Gotta stand tall and aim higher
    Don’t touch the barbed wire
    I say, don’t let people hold you back
    Gotta stand tall and aim higher
    Don’t touch the barbed wire
    Don’t touch the barbed wire

    And watch him grow into a shell of a man
    Everything is taking shape and going to plan
    How quickly though, life can turn around
    One step forward, two steps back, he’s lost in the crowd

    Alone, we stand together we fall
    Slow, that belief conquers all

    So don’t let people hold you back
    Gotta stand tall and aim higher
    Don’t touch the barbed wire
    I say, don’t let people hold you back
    Gotta stand tall and aim higher
    Don’t touch the barbed wire
    Don’t touch the barbed wire

    If you walk in your shadow
    Led by shepherds then you know
    If you walk in your shadow
    If you walk in your shadow
    Led by shepherds then you know
    If you walk in your shadow

    So don’t let people hold you back
    Gotta stand tall and aim higher
    Don’t touch the barbed wire
    I say, don’t let people hold you back
    Gotta stand tall and aim higher
    Don’t touch the barbed wire
    Don’t touch the barbed wire
    Don’t touch the barbed wire
    Don’t touch the barbed wire
    Don’t touch the barbed wire
