OTHER SIDE OF THE WALL

Say what you really mean
You say nothing at all
So I guess you don’t know

Stay where you want to be
The other side of the wall–
It never had much room for me

And when you said that you would try for me, I was so naive
To think that you could be strong–tell me that you were wrong
I never said that you should cry for me, but I’d like to see
A little sign that you feel–evidence that you’re real

Days have numbed me sane
I never took you for cruel
You never took in my pain

Rays of right and wrong
Have left you blind
I don’t think i can lead you on

And when you said that you would try for me, I was so naive
To think that you could be strong–tell me that you were wrong
I never said that you should cry for me, but I’d like to see
A little sign that you feel–evidence that you’re real

I’ve been trying so hard to break through
You’ve been stacking lies so you can see
Life the way that’s easier for you,
Rather than the way it’s meant to be

And when you said that you would try for me, I was so naive
To think that you could be strong–tell me that you were wrong
I never said that you should die for me, but I’d like to see
A little sign that you feel–evidence that you’re real
