Brick Walls
She's from another past
Bottle of wine since '63
Drowning in another glass
I hate when she visits me
She said, "I don't know and I don't care."
"My minds free and I'm not going anywhere."
"Somewhere down this lonely road"
"I lost my soul"
She wants the future I'm afraid of
The fantasies I'm struggling to live
I'm just her hollow shell
Of a girl not afraid to give
When I point out her flaws
She tries the excuse that everything has a cause
I can't accept the fallacy
She writes out for me
I don't know and I don't care
My mind is free but it's not going anywhere
Somewhere down this lonely road
Even when she visits me
I know I'm alone
