Iron wall
"Because a wall is better than a gate."
Someone told me,
build a gate around your heart
and let whosoever in
who has the key to the lock.
But, oh! The world does many blunders!
build a gate around your heart
and let whosoever in
who has the key to the lock.
But, oh! The world does many blunders!
then sits around and watches its wonders.
So, one fine day merely came,
and this sole person reached and climbed up this gate,
stole the treasures he wanted to take.
Never returned, I have always grieved
Tell me,
Isn't it better to have an iron wall
which can't be breached?
Never returned, I have always grieved
Tell me,
Isn't it better to have an iron wall
which can't be breached?
