A Walk On a Wire Songtext
von Dappled Cities

I′m the one who'll make a stand
And make us stand beyond the wall today
You′re the thief that freedom speaks to
And is silent in its sound
And here it's the land that holds us back
And holds so many miles away
Now it's the time I′ll break the tin
And move us safely through the wire

So will you walk, walk, walk
Walk like I told you to do
And don′t stop, stop, stop
Stop till I tell you not to move
So will you wait, wait, wait
Wait like how he tells us to
Or will you walk, walk, walk
Just like I told you to do


Damn apologies and the constant cry
Of loyalty that wakes me through the night
And curse the words of neighbors made
To trade our secrets for their lives
Admire the ones who've seen
That we could use these breaths in better ways
Cut the rope and make it stand
Like a tight hand giving us a hope

Father, fathers, tell your sons
And your litter of fairness is on its way
Fan the walls around you
Keep them warm as they ever warm the hall
Fill the soil with odds and mementos
That′ll give this life a life beyond
And nail the doors and say nothing
Till the frightening walls have vanished away
And the crumpled mansion dreams

So will you walk, walk, walk
Walk like I told you to do
And don't stop, stop, stop
Stop till I tell you not to move
So will you wait, wait, wait
Wait like how he tells us to
Or will you walk, walk, walk
Just like I told you to do
