| It went so well for you
|
| With a place right where you wanted
|
| And the ones to fill it to
|
| But some blows break the spell
|
| That it hits you every day
|
| Until you need to hit as well
|
| It’s just a shadow of the man you should be
|
| Like a garden in the forest
|
| That the world will never see
|
| You have no thought of answers
|
| Only questions to be filled
|
| And it feels like hell
|
| It all seemed fine for you
|
| Till the struggle of ambition
|
| Turned in violence upon you
|
| Sometimes a landslide comes
|
| If you’re hiding in that avalanche
|
| You need a place to run
|
| It’s just a shadow of the woman you should be
|
| Like a garden in the forest
|
| That the world will never see
|
| And you have no thought of answers
|
| Only questions to be filled
|
| And it feels like hell
|
| I know there is no need for what’s been done
|
| I know there is enough for everyone
|
| Frustration brings a heavy hand to bear
|
| And there’s never been a hand
|
| Did we ever have it good
|
| While we lived in Eldorado
|
| Did we find the gold we should
|
| If it really was the truth
|
| Why are faces filled with anger
|
| That should only shine with youth
|
| It’s just a shadow of the people we should be
|
| Like a garden in the forest
|
| That the world will never see
|
| You have no thought of answers
|
| Only questions to be filled
|
| And it feels like hell
|
| I know there is no need for what’s been done
|
| I know there is enough for everyone
|
| Frustration brings a heavy hand to bear
|
| And there never is a hand outside that cares
|
| Still the promise comes of living fit for all
|
| If we only get our back against the wall
|
| I look at backs that pushed the wall for years
|
| Scarred by many knives and too much fear |
