|
A crippling anxiety |
|
A chasm between you and me |
|
That I wish wasn't there |
|
There are things that I would like to say to you |
|
I'm so afraid you'd disapprove |
|
If you would even care |
|
You're on the other side of the wall from me |
|
But I can hear you crying |
|
I'm on the other side of the wall from you |
|
And a piece of me is dying |
|
Sometimes it all seems well within my reach |
|
If only I could dare to breach |
|
The barriers that stand |
|
But then I start to doubt instead |
|
Perhaps it's all just in my head |
|
And my will dissolves like sand |
|
You're on the other side of the wall from me |
|
But I can hear you crying |
|
I'm on the other side of the wall from you |
|
And a piece of me is dying |
|
To wish for things impossible |
|
Against the insurmountable |
|
May seem a dream for fools |
|
But drowning in uncertainty |
|
For countless more eternities |
|
Is equally as cruel |
|
You're on the other side of the wall from me |
|
But I can hear you crying |
|
I'm on the other side of the wall from you |
|
And a piece of me is dying |
