Wailing Wall

Before the night is over, I will have you down
 Hold you there, 'till everything comes clear
 'Cause you look so much like me and it's hard for me to see
 Who's holding who
 But isn't that what we do?
 The colours of this room never change
 The fragile friends that come and go
 and it's harder to reveal
 So we shut our eyes and steal again
 From what we know I wish I could let it go
 You were my wailing wall
 My endless fascination
 The voice of inspiration in an empty hall
 You were my wailing wall
 When the nights would never end
 Twisting closer to the bend where the lonely fall
 You were my wailing wall
 Please don't get too sentimental, the past is just the past
 Now I have to live from day to day
 Still, I've come to see the healer
 From the back door of the dealer
 Where the broken souls
 Get lost in the undertow
 You were my wailing wall
 My endless fascination
 The voice of inspiration in an empty hall
 You were my wailing wall
 When the nights would never end
 Twisting closer to the bend where the lonely fall
 You were my wailing wall
 Flipping through the names
 Of the friends I haven't burned
 Pages fall like leaves
 From the lessons never learned
 Secrets only breathe
 If you hold them to your chest
 And nothing smells like fear
 Nothing suffers like regret
 You were my wailing wall
 My endless fascination
 The voice of inspiration in an empty hall
 You were my wailing wall
 When the nights would never end
 Twisting closer to the bend where the lonely fall
 You were my wailing wall
 You were my wailing wall
 When the nights would never end
 Twisting closer to the bend where the lonely fall
 You were my wailing wall
 My wailing wall
