The Walls

I'm woven in a fantasy,
I can't believe the things I see
The path that I have chosen now
has led me to a wall
And with each passing day I feel
a little more like something dear
was lost
It rises now before me,
a dark and silent barrier between,
All I am, and all that I would ever want be
It's just a travesty, towering, marking
off the boundaries my spirit
would erase

To pass beyond is what I seek,
I fear that I may be too weak
And those are few who've seen it through
to glimpse the other side,
The promised land is waiting like a maiden that
is soon to be a bride
The moment is a masterpiece,
the weight of indecision's in the air
It's standing there,
the symbol and the sum of all that's me
It's just a travesty,
towering, blocking out the light and blinding me
I want to see

Gold and diamonds cast a spell,
it's not for me I know it well
The riches that I seek
are waiting on the other side
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
All I am, and all that I was ever meant to be,
in harmony
Shining true and smiling back at all who wait to cross
There is no loss
