Sit, I’ll tell you why
my ego is so tall
Coz I have a timid heart
Strut upon a high wall
I’ve been a royal fool
Not once and not twice
Crossing unruly borders
Against all advice
So, I built this wall
To keep hurt away
To hold strength within
To live another day
But look at you! Damn!
How you storm in
Without much words
You make me give in
My ego’s gone to trash
This wall is crashing down
Weeping tears of relief
And joy all around
But do I still have fears
Am I just too proud?
Do I have the courage
To say it out loud?
Yes, I’m making hay
While your sun shines
And live another day
Gathering doting signs
And when you do leave
I’ll work my way anew
And build that wall again
Give credit where its due
Together when all in
How hours slip away
But the clock’s ticking
Sayin he’s not going to stay
