Walls
I have walked alone in darkness;
with nothing shedding light:
I flourish in my darkness;
tucking away my fright:
I spent my youth building walls, in which to hide.
The days would last forever;
the nights be gone to quick:
Each fear and pain a lever;
each hurt another brick:
I promised from behind my wall, none would get inside.
One night out came a lovely moon;
in which I lost myself:
I see it in the brightest noon;
my heart comes off the shelf:
I cry from behind my wall, how do I get outside.
And now I see with eyes uncovered;
the darkness loneliness brings:
I am so glad that I discovered;
the happiness dawn brings:
These walls are now a prison, I have no need to hide.
Now with each dawn another day;
each night brings out my moon:
How I do so love to hear them say;
we'll talk again quite soon:
Oh how I wish to free myself, these walls I can't abide.
If my moon will walk with me;
I'm sure I'll overcome:
If my dawn will talk to me;
I'm stronger than anyone:
These walls I built will crumble, thank god at last I tried
