Kansas - The Wall |

The Wall
Kansas I'm woven in a fantasy, I can't believe the things I see And with each passing day I feel a little more like something dear was lost The path that I have chosen now has led me to a wall It rises now before me, a dark and silent barrier between, It's just a travesty, towering, marking off the boundaries my spirit would erase All I am, and all that I would ever want be The promised land is waiting like a maiden that is soon to be a bride And those are few who've seen it through to glimpse the other side, To pass beyond is what I seek, I fear that I may be too weak It's just a travesty, towering, blocking out the light and blinding me It's standing there, the symbol and the sum of all that's me The moment is a masterpiece, the weight of indecision's in the air I want to see The treasures that I seek are waiting on the other side Gold and diamonds cast a spell, it's not for me I know it well There's more that I can measure in the treasure of the love that I can find And though it's always been with me, I must tear down the Wall and let it be Shining true and smiling back at all who wait to cross All I am, and all that I was ever meant to be, in harmony There is no loss |
