lyrics

BEHIND THE WALL

I sit behind the wall
My gaze tames what’s gone before
You come to find this lonesome land
Build your golden city from your treasured hand
From this you make all wrongs right
Fighting with conscience night by night

You paint your walls thick with hurt
And plaster cracks where you’ve been burned
Take this and turn it over
Find your four leaf rest your shoulders
And I sit behind the wall
Some comfort now though it’s small

Tears land on soil and watch the flowers grow
And where we are we’ll never know
I sit behind the wall
No reason to it all
If ignorance is bliss then I won’t remember this
No mystery, no misery behind the wall
No memory it can’t last subdued it’s in the past
Behind the wall
Behind the wall
Behind the wall
Behind the wall

If ignorance
If ignorance is bliss
I won’t remember this
I sit behind the wall no reason behind it all
Summer crossing isn’t shade
There’s nothing left to say
