|
It went so well for you |
|
With a place right where you wanted and the ones to fill it to |
|
But some blows break the spell |
|
That it hits you every day until you need to hit as well |
|
It's just a shadow of the man you should be |
|
Like a garden in the forest that the world will never see |
|
You have no thought of answers only questions to be filled |
|
And it feels like hell |
|
It all seemed fine for you |
|
Till the struggle of ambition turned in violence upon you |
|
Sometimes a landslide comes |
|
If you're hiding in that avalanche you need a place to run |
|
It's just a shadow of the woman you should be |
|
Like a garden in the forest that the world will never see |
|
And you have no thought of answers only questions to be filled |
|
And it feels like hell |
|
I know there is no need for what's been done |
|
I know there is enough for everyone |
|
Frustration brings a heavy hand to bear |
|
And there's never been a hand |
|
Did we ever have it good |
|
While we lived in |
|
Eldorado did we find the gold we should |
|
If it really was the truth |
|
Why are faces filled with anger that should only shine with youth |
|
It's just a shadow of the people we should be |
|
Like a garden in the forest that the world will never see |
|
You have no thought of answers only questions to be filled |
|
And it feels like hell |
|
I know there is no need for what's been done |
|
I know there is enough for everyone |
|
Frustration brings a heavy hand to bear |
|
And there never is a hand outside that cares |
|
Still the promise comes of living fit for all |
|
If we only get our back against the wall |
|
I look at backs that pushed the wall for years |
|
Scarred by many knives and too much fear |
