| Spent the better half of my life
|
| Building walls to keep you outside
|
| And I ain’t let nobody in since
|
| Shit, I don’t know when…
|
| Well, the wall I built
|
| It was big and high
|
| It went all the way
|
| Up to the sky
|
| Well, how was I to know
|
| How was I to know?
|
| My baby, you could fly
|
| Just like a bird, you could fly…
|
| You got inside and you made me cry and I don’t know why
|
| (What can I do?)
|
| So you humble me
|
| And then you leave me
|
| And you take what’s left
|
| Of my dignity
|
| Is this what you
|
| Wanted to see?
|
| Me, broken and down on my knees
|
| Is this what you
|
| Wanted to see?
|
| This is me
|
| I’m down, I’m broken, I’m on my knees
|
| The wall I built
|
| It was big and high
|
| It went all the way
|
| Up to the sky
|
| Well, how was I to know
|
| How was I to know?
|
| My baby, you could fly
|
| Just like a bird, you could fly…
|
| You got inside and you made me cry and I don’t know why
|
| (What can I do?)
|
| A little forthcoming advice would be mighty nice…
|
| (What can I do?)… |
