A Wall I Must Climb Songtext

von Michael McDermott

Things were moving so fast
I couldn't comprehend it
I was first, maybe I was last
Confusion had descended
I was amazed by what had
Transcended
Through the pages of time
Faith is a wall I must climb
I was intrigued by your spirit
And your eyes which showed no pain
You were screaming but I couldn't
Hear it
And your movements would not
Explain
Why you'd condemn me
To a world of senseless rhyme
Fear is a wall I must climb
I've seen some heroes in my day
I've seen the failures in yours
I've tried to connect us in some way
But we're on two different shores
Though your love is worth million of
Treasures
But I can't even spare a dime
Love is a wall I must climb
The people, they were singing
I could hear them from the street
My feelings, they were stinging
I was submerged in my defeat
But I smiled for a second
And for that second, I felt fi ne
Pain is a wall I must climb
So quiet is the terror
That swallows me like the night
So quiet is this sickness
And the song that I long to write
But I shall receive my passion
Eternally
From beyond the bitter stars that shine
Doubt is a wall I must climb
In my world of convergence
I'm a prisoner only unto me
While I await for the emergence
Of the form I shall soon be
Until then I'll wait in the museum
The museum of my mind
Fate is a wall I must climb
The hangman, he's in the shadows
And he's looking for something to do
Until we fi nd who won the battles
Of the evil and the true
And the judges, they're in recess
Until they receive some sort of sacred
Sign
Belief is a wall I must climb
Have you ever looked at your face so
Much
Until it became askew?
Because the road that's less traveled is
The one
That leads right back to you
I'm frightened for I
Fear that my lack of life is my crime
I am a wall I must climb
