When I look back on the past I see the things that were I wonder why I chose this road Though I thought it once a blur Walls of stone and mortar Built up to hide my heart If they were never broken From there I'd never part So keyholes were my only way To see the world outside But I coiuld never see the picture How can you when you hide? I see there was no reason For the things I'd said and done Because for all that I had found My war could not be won In searching for something better A life that I could bare Something needed to be changed If I could I would but where? I could have tried to change it Make the world serve my need But how could I imprison them Just so that I be freed I couldn't live with such a thing If I did that no matter how small I'd rather lose it for myself And give the world my all And for once I saw it clearly And nearly did I drown The answer was so very simple My wall would have to come down So there I sat with wall of rubble I saw the world now clear and plain I knew that all the struggle I'd had Now had not been in vain I kept my love behind those walls To keep my heart from being broken But now that I can see the dangers clearly From sleep... It was awoken... |
