The walls I always build anew
Are falling - are beyond repair.
These walls I treasure and protect
Guard me from life's pain and despair.

Now they are crumbling here beside me
They were never built to last.
I am finally certain of the worst
And I can live my live - a jest.

I received the final blow today
And felt a word destroy me.
I saw my walls around me dying fast
And I knew that all hope had left.
