Forest Fortress
you'll take it as far as you have to, I've seen before
I'll lay it at your feet, and patiently die inside
you'll justify your course by the past you've seen
I'll hope you'll focus on the future and what could be
you'll see the world in any color you choose, you pick the lens
I'll see the world you've painted, but with an understanding eye
you'll stone and mortar yourself a nice little fortress to hide behind
I'll notice the lack of doors or windows in your blueprints
You'll stay safe, protected, insulated.......and alone.....
Just don't lay that last brick....
it's your way out.
