what if i stutter what if i fall what if i discover that i'm up against a wall? so strong at the begining so sure of every move so perfectly in control impervious to love what if i stutter what if i fall what if i discover that i'm up against a wall? faults hidden so carefully tucked away inside thoughts guarded pointedly inside the mind do hide what if i stutter what if i fall what if i discover that i'm up against a wall? stuck within a tireless race against this present line struggling to destroy the self away the soul to pine what if i stutter what if i fall what if i discover that i'm up against a wall? only so many turns to make short time left on the scale mission hangs precariously balanced on a rail what if i stutter what if i fall what if i discover that i'm up against a wall? everything collapses all those careful plans the world around it changes torn away by careless hands what if i stutter what if i fall what if i discover that i'm up against a wall? small one left to help the soul clings on though pushed away sees things that no youth should see until their dying day then i find i stutter then i feel i fall then i do discover i am up against a wall. desparation eekes on in last minutes they tick by but somehow by ironic grace blindly out it cries i have already stuttered i find that i did fall i have faintly discovered i am up against a wall. nothing left to plan for all careful schemes have died repetitive darkness closes across those who have lied i am caught in a stutter i am picked up from my fall i now plainly discover i am proped against a wall. and now for starting over 'tis time for moving on and though it is unknow to where it is no time to run i will overcome this stutter i will get up from next fall i accept that i discover that i rather need this wall. what if i stutter then i feel i fall i have faintly discovered i am propped against a wall... ...i accept that i discover that i rather need this wall.
