spent the better half of my life
building walls to keep you outside
and i ain't let nobody in since
shit
i don't know when. well
the wall i built
it was big and high
it went all the way
up to the sky
well
how was i to know
how was i to know?
my baby
you could fly
just like a bird
you could fly. you got inside and you made me cry and i don't know why
so you humble me
and then you leave me
and you take what's left
of my dignity
is this what you
wanted to see?
me
broken and down on my knees
is this what you
wanted to see?
this is me
i'm down
i'm broken
i'm on my knees
the wall i built
it was big and high
it went all the way
up to the sky
well
how was i to know
how was i to know?
my baby
you could fly
just like a bird
you could fly. you got inside and you made me cry and i don't know why
a little forthcoming advice would be mighty nice.
