footprints in the earth.....
Wall
The other side is brick
And we are trapped in concrete
Feelings piled one on the other
You cannot see why bother
The bars are blocks so high,
Like enmity eye for an eye
Life is hard without gain is dull
Let's hide behind his wall
To demolish is an angry effort
Like having in a life support
For cored has strengthened the wall,
We cannot let it fall
Character is buried in plaster,
Envy becomes the mind master
So another inch is added
Leaving the conscience retarded
To build is the goal
Get arresting the very soul
Yet remember Joshua's call
Let our Jericho walls fall.
And we are trapped in concrete
Feelings piled one on the other
You cannot see why bother
The bars are blocks so high,
Like enmity eye for an eye
Life is hard without gain is dull
Let's hide behind his wall
To demolish is an angry effort
Like having in a life support
For cored has strengthened the wall,
We cannot let it fall
Character is buried in plaster,
Envy becomes the mind master
So another inch is added
Leaving the conscience retarded
To build is the goal
Get arresting the very soul
Yet remember Joshua's call
Let our Jericho walls fall.
