Windows & Walls

You can't keep a love in
With windows and walls
Even twelve rooms connected
By marble floored halls
You can't keep a love in
Being scared it will cease
You can't see the big picture
While you're staring at the crease
Play it in any language
It's an old loser's game
Wisdom comes in all different ways
But this ignorance is all the same
One wants to go
One tries to stall
You can't keep a love in
With windows and walls
In the hour of the dead you walk the floor
Where the battle will be fought
You may not learn the lesson but
The lesson will be taught
The silence will not comfort you
When you speak the words will tell
The breaking of a spell
You can't keep a love in
With windows and walls
Build the beams higher
Nothing is solved
There's locks on the windows
Where the cats always curl
Through those locks you can't stop
A wild and raging world
In the hour of the dead you walk the floor
Where the battle will be fought
You may not learn the lesson but
The lesson will be taught
The silence will not comfort you
When you speak the words will tell
(When you speak the words will tell)
The breaking of a spell
You used to want everying
Now you want peace
If it can't be with him
Then within you at least
When love learns to run
Before it can crawl
You can't keep a love in
With windows and walls
