the walls I've built

I know no greater sorrow than you know greater hardship than this !
if any exist then let it not be known for this lonely heart of mine has taken its toll!

for all that I've given and all that I've gained I sooner realize it was all in vain!
for I remain not only the sanctuary but the epitome of pain!
so what more is left of me other than a name?

shunned by happiness betrayed by love oblivious to the one that I've been thinking of.
no one tell my story, noone to make me feel alive,
so I hold her with a tarnished regard and keep the rest inside

now I feel like a stone wall lifeless with no soul!
no meaning, little purpose, and nohope!
wow she's like the strongest flower able to stand even when the seasons grow cold.
rather than wither away she stays strong and grows old,
me, I just grow mold and stay lifeless with no soul!
