Take my heart,
Take my soul.
With no remark,
With no tole.
I try to hard,
You don't try at all.
I try to climb,
But the wall is too tall.
I try to get over you,
But I go the long way.
It's easier to go around,
But I go the long way.
By trying to climb,
The wall infront of me.
The one between us,
That's all you see.
We can see one way,
The window that's dim.
All he see's is the wall,
And all I see is him.
