I Am a Wall
Guardian Wall: Shielding Love Amidst Chaos
Lyrics
I am a wall
I represent a barrier or defense.
and my skin is thick
My outer layer is resilient.
And hardened to your eyes
My exterior has toughened to avoid revealing vulnerability.
I am a wall
I continue to function as a protective barrier.
And my face is cracked
My facade is showing signs of wear and damage.
From the sun and storm filled
Weathering challenges and adversities.
Skies
I persist despite exposure to harsh conditions.
I am a wall
I maintain my defensive role.
And I keep you from
I shield you from the darker aspects of my nature.
The darkened side of me
Protecting you from the hidden, negative side of myself.
While you sleep, while you sleep
Guarding you while you are unaware, possibly during sleep.
I am a wall
Reiteration of the protective role as a barrier.
and I keep you from
Continued shielding from the concealed aspects within.
The darkened side of me
Committing to protection until limitations are reached.
for as long as I can stand before
Standing strong until I collapse and return to past vulnerabilities.
I crumble to the ground
Breaking down and reverting to previous weaknesses.
And turn to past existence
Falling into a former existence.
Tumble through the crowds
Moving through crowds like dust, following divine direction.
As dust at God's insistence
Symbolizing fragility and transience at God's behest.
I am a wall
Restating the protective function as a barrier.
And I keep you from
Continued defense against hidden aspects.
The darkened side of me
Preventing exposure to the darker side of myself.
Hold you from the gunfire
Safeguarding from emotional harm and conflict in dreams.
In my dreams of lands with blood Stained hands and screaming voices
Dreaming of violent lands with graphic imagery.
Broken souls with bullet holes
Depicting broken individuals with physical and emotional wounds.
And hopeless choices
Describing individuals facing bleak choices.
I am a wall
Reiterating the role of a barrier.
And I keep you from
Consistently shielding from internal darkness.
The darkened side of me
Preserving you from the concealed side of myself.
Hold you from the gunfire
Continuing to protect from emotional harm in dreams.
I am a wall
Reaffirming the role as a protective wall.
I am the wall, I am the wall (chant etc)
Repetition of being a wall, emphasizing the identity.
In my dreams of lands with blood Stained hands and screaming voices
Reiteration of dreams with violent imagery and despair.
Broken souls with bullet holes and Hopeless choices, hopeless choices
Repeating the theme of brokenness and limited choices.
I am a wall
Reaffirming the identity as a protective barrier.
