Thought I was building a man, but I was building a wall
So tall, couldn't make it fall
Talked myself into living a lie
Why do I feel so low trying to feel so high
Brick by brick you're building it higher
And you know that the voice that you hear is a liar
Reality hits your head like a bat
And you know that you're trapped, trapped like a rat
Chorus:
Can't break free but you know that you must
Run away from the things that you just can't trust
All the things you feel like your heart will bust
It corodes like rust........lust
Draw the lines then I cross the lines
Am I moving up or falling further behind
Feels like I'm getting close to the ledge
When will I take that step over the edge
Brick by brick you're building it higher
And you know that the voice that you hear is a liar
Reality hits your head like a bat
And you know that you're trapped, trapped like a rat
Can't break free but you know that you must
Run away from the things that you just can't trust
All the things you feel like your heart will bust
It corodes like rust........lust
Still small voice crying out to me
Why don't you turn around, I can set you free
I can break that wall with one drop of My blood
Let me in, I'll come in like a flood
Now it's time for you to realize
That it breaks my heart when you fantasize
There's a choice, gotta make it now
Don't shut Me out - Don't shut Me out!!!!
Can't break free but you know that you must
Run away from the things that you just can't trust
All the things you feel like your heart will bust
It corodes like rust........lust
