| There’s a wall that stands between us
|
| Something neither one can see
|
| Protection from the world outside
|
| And most of all from me
|
| Years of torture and deceit
|
| Have made your fortress strong
|
| Maybe all are out to harm you
|
| Just as you are never wrong
|
| You doubted my intentions
|
| Left me grappling with fear
|
| My words were not sincere enough
|
| For your hardened heart to hear
|
| Thousand miles may lay between us
|
| May as well be down the hall
|
| You close out all around you
|
| So no one’s near at all
|
| Set me free
|
| I’ve no faith in anything I see
|
| Look at what you’ve down with your dishonesty
|
| Leave me be
|
| I don’t need your callous sympathy
|
| For I’m not as weak as I appear to be
|
| Maybe things were different
|
| Though nothing’s changed at all
|
| Now my strength is failing
|
| Can’t change you when you fall
|
| You have no need of me
|
| And set out on your own
|
| When the world comes down around you
|
| You’ll find yourself alone
|
| Years will come in silence
|
| Only memories will remain
|
| Peace will not come easy
|
| A token of distain
|
| So let your hope be silent
|
| Though there’s nothing there at all
|
| Sleep will not come easy
|
| As the rain begins to fall |
