Breaking Down

You’re scaling an invisible wall
Dissolving statues in desert sands
Please catch me before I fall
Iron grip slowly slips from my hands

Breaching steel barricades
Toppling false regimes I've built
Grounding moors in afternoon shades
Trample on my blooming guilt

Toppling false regimes I've built
Please catch me before I fall
Trample on my blooming guilt
You’re scaling an invisible wall
