No one sees it,
And nobody knows why.
I am stuck in this fortress of solitude,
But did I build these walls?
They are built so high,
Will anyone ever hear my calls?
A deep sigh,
Nobody knows why.
I know where I want to be,
But my fortress is holding me.
I should be happy -
Not so many have what I see.
A deep sigh,
Nobody knows why.
The rope is dangling before me,
But I cannot reach it.
I do not have the strength to pull myself free,
I feel I'll remain here for all eternity.
A deep sigh,
Nobody knows why.
A teardrop or three.
But it feels like a flood,
To no one but me.
Nobody knows why.
