Lyrics
0:39I'm woven in a fantasy
0:41I can't believe the things I see
0:43The path that I have chosen now
0:46Has led me to a wall
0:49And with each passing day I feel a little more like something dear was lost
0:55It rises now before me
1:00A dark and silent barrier between
1:05All I am and all that I would ever want be
1:11It's just a travesty
1:14Towering marking off the boundaries my spirit
1:22Would erase
1:25To pass beyond is what I seek
1:28I fear that I may be too weak
1:30And those are few who've seen it
1:33Through to glimpse the other side
1:36The promised land is waiting like a maiden that is soon to be a bride
1:44The moment is a masterpiece
1:47The weight of indecision's in the air
1:51It's standing there the symbol and the sum of all that's me
1:58It's just a travesty
2:01Towering blocking out the light and blinding me
2:08I want to see
2:46Gold and diamonds cast a spell
2:48It's not for me I know it well
2:51The riches that I seek
2:53Are waiting on the other side
2:56There's more than I can measure in the treasure of the love that I can find
3:05And though it's always been with me
3:07I must tear down the Wall and let it be
3:12All I am and all that I was ever meant to be in harmony
3:21Shining true and smiling back at all who wait to cross
3:29There is no loss
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 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 It's 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 it well The riches that I seek Are waiting on the other side There's more than 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 true and smiling back at all who wait to cross There is no loss
