Walls

There was no one there to witness it But you and I and I don’t forget You left me there to bury them A cold hard ground A frost had crept in Never again Never again Never again Never again Well they took root and they did grow Into each brick and row on row Built a tall and endless wall To house my heart and hide my soul It is strong and it is beautiful And I am beautiful and cold Love breaks like waves Across the chest of me And I refrain This whole town knows you’re The girl behind the walls Time will move and carry me Like a river current moves a leaf The oceans out ahead of me When I reach its mouth Then I’ll be free yeah I am strong and I am beautiful I am beautiful and cold Love breaks like waves Across the chest of me And I refrain This whole town knows you’re The girl behind the walls Love breaks like waves Across the chest of me And I refrain This whole town knows you’re the girl This whole town knows you’re the girl This whole town knows you’re the girl
