a wall
I lost my way, devil, malady
My soul is full of rage
My homeland is full of defeat, greed
My homeland is full of violence
Show me a way, play me a song
Play me my fears, make sure my neighborhood hears
(Make sure my neighborhood hears)
It's hard to breathe in this country
Everyone wants to leave
Every neighborhood is crowded now
Every deserted street is busy
Show me a way out, play me a song
Play me my fears, make sure my neighborhood hears
(Make sure my neighborhood hears)
I'm on a hill, I need to guard my position
But I no longer feel willing
I'm looking for a way in a heavy fog
It's getting tighter every second, the noose around my neck
It's freezing out there, I'm dressed lightly
You need to know this shitty system
If you want to win
My enemies keep trying to pull me down, but
No, I don't want to step down
To live is an affliction
Even when it's hard, I'll go at it on my own,
Won't let anybody know
I always fought my battles on my own
I owe nothing to no one
(I owe nothing to no one)
Never bowing down to no one
World, I know that I'm all alone
Some snow, a teardrop, the fall
I know that I'm at the top of a slope,
And it won't become flat
Armies after me, fear inside me
An impenetrable, disloyal wall in front of me
I'm getting tired, my love
(I'm being shot at, my love)
Bayonets on their rifles, fear inside me
An impenetrable, disloyal wall in front of me
I'm getting tired, my love
(I'm being shot at, my love)
My writings are now hopeless
Living is running, evasive, half-assed
I'm getting older,
The things I want to do are getting harder
I have wrinkles now, and crow's feet
Winter is ahead, and I'm low on firewood
I moved forward,
Digging through the snow, but my hand's not dealt fair
I carried leeches around
While I had the weight of the world on my shoulders
I know what will happen,
I won't be getting back what I'm owed
Suddenly, my ink will run out,
And my story will be cut in half, just like all the others
Opportunities will decrease,
My words will no longer please
Tomorrows will become yesterdays,
My choruses will cease
I will watch in despair
As pine cones spread the fire inside me
I will be by myself
As I step down those famous stairs I once climbed by myself
Armies after me, fear inside me
An impenetrable, disloyal wall in front of me
I'm getting tired, my love
(I'm being shot at, my love)
Bayonets on their rifles, fear inside me
An impenetrable, disloyal wall in front of me
I'm getting tired, my love
(I'm being shot at, my love)
