The Wall Songtext
von Kansas

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 to 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
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 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 through and smiling back at all who wait to cross
There is no loss, oh!
