We start at an early age With bricks of icy steel Surrounding ourselves With a wall, more like a cage It’s better to hide than to feel Where do you go - when nowhere is home? When the shadows are all that you have known Higher, Higher - up to the sky Better build the wall But don’t let it fall The ultimate truth is a lie Outside the walls there is only fear With memories of suburban nights And remembering internal fights I set a course - but I can’t steer Round and round - year after year So many questions with no answers in sight Hide in the circle and stay out of the light The wall is home and it’s safe in here Where do I go - when nowhere is home? When the shadows are all I have ever known Faster, Faster - try not to feel Better build the wall But don’t let it fall Is Reality Really Real? At last I can shout Because I’m finally free For the wall is completed And the fear has retreated But then it dawned on me - How can I get out?
