Where does one go when they are hiding within themselves? |
Walls of Silence You wonder where I go when I lock myself away when tears cloud my eyes and I have no words to say I start on a mountain where the wind blows in my face where clouds are blue and peaceful and yet it's still a lonely place I venture through the trees looking for a friend but when all I find are walls I feel I've reached the end The walls close in around me too high for me to scale and though I try to break them I admit I always fail I hear your accusing question tell me "what did I do?" and for once I just wish you'd stop thinking about you This is not your prison these walls are not to keep you out keeping me locked inside is what this is all about I know that you're outside but I'm trapped in here alone and though I hear your voice we're seperated by miles of stone Each brick is filled with emotion those which I can't control and just when I feel I'm safe I find myself in a deeper hole Then the tears erupt again fillng the pit I've cleared and swimming in this ocean are all the sharks I've feared Suddenly I feel I can swim Escape the dangers taunting me and once I reach the safety of land I realize I'm still not free Again I'm on the mountain a little higher up this time and as I make my way down, I think the walls should be harder to find They are, it takes a little longer I start to hope they'll fall but by the time I reach them they stand ten times as tall And on and on it goes for as far as I can see I seem to only find peace when I can finally fool me |
