Lyrics
Build a wall
Starting the process of separation or isolation.
Brick by brick
Gradually and steadily constructing the separation.
Cemented hate
Hatred being solidified or entrenched.
Makes the pieces fit
Hatred facilitates a sense of completion or unity.
As the wall goes up
As the division intensifies, light or hope diminishes.
And the light goes away
Metaphorical darkness prevails, signifying despair.
You spit your fears
Projecting one's fears onto others.
Back in your face
Confronting the consequences of one's fears.
Nowhere to go
A sense of being trapped or having no escape.
I've got nowhere to go
Expressing a feeling of being stuck or directionless.
Nowhere to go
Reiterating the sentiment of feeling trapped or without options.
When it burns
Alluding to a situation of intense pain or anguish.
So here we are again
Returning to a familiar, cyclic situation.
Tired of trying
Feeling exhausted from attempting to maintain the status quo.
Not to let it go
Struggling not to relinquish control or give up.
So here we are again
Repetition of weariness from attempting to hold on.
Tired of trying
Similar exhaustion from resisting letting go.
Not to let it go
Struggling to maintain a grip on the situation.
Let it go
An urge or command to release or surrender.
Let it go
Repetition emphasizes the need to let go.
So here we are again
Returning once more to the fatigue of attempting to hold on.
Tired of trying
Continued exhaustion from resisting release.
Not to let it go
Struggling to maintain control yet again.
Let it go
A final plea or command to let go.
