Block By Block
Have you ever felt
so closed off
It’s as if you’ve been building a wall
between yourself, and the rest of the world
You can huff & puff
all day long
but your never going to get through
no matter what you do
I’ll out build your advances
So catch a clue
Things turn on a dime around here
and this construction crew will work nonstop
Block by block
As I listen to the clock
Tick
......tock
Tick
......tock
Right now
My mind
feels like a sealed envelope
I’m trapped inside
Postage applied
Theirs no chance of you getting back inside
Not at this time
