|
I sit at my table and wage war on myself
|
It seems like its all its all for nothing.
|
I know the barricades, and I know the mortar in the wall breaks
|
I recognize the weapons. I've used them well.
|
|
This is my mistake.
|
Let me make it good.
|
I raised the wall and I will be the one to knock it down.
|
|
I've a rich understanding of my finest defenses:
|
I proclaim that claims are left unstated,
|
I demand a rematch.
|
I decree a stalemate.
|
I divine my deeper motives.
|
I recognize the weapons.
|
I've practiced them well, I fitted them myself.
|
|
Its amazing what devices you can sympathize, empathize.
|
This is my mistake. Let me make it good.
|
I raised the wall and I will be the one to knock it down.
|
|
Reach out for me, hold me tight, hold that memory.
|
Let my machine talk to me. Let my machine talk to me.
|
This is my world, and I am the world leader pretend.
|
This is my life and this is my time.
|
I have been given the freedom to do as I see fit.
|
Its high time I razed the walls that I've constructed.
|
|
Its amazing what devices you can sympathize, empathize.
|
This is my mistake. Let me make it good.
|
I raised the wall and I will be the one to knock it down.
|
|
You fill in the mortar.
|
You fill in the harmony.
|
You fill in the mortar.
|
I raised the wall and I'm the only one.
|
I will be the one to knock it down.
