Daniel and the Dragon - the barriers
It shouldn't hurt until you're halfway
Breaking up the aching with your stride alone
Pushing through to noble endings
Why do I keep putting on the same old broken
The same old broken head I have
And I
Hurdle the barriers one by one
This should be you and not me
Up there ahead of this
And I
Tear my whole body to smithereens
This should be you and not me
But that is the one thing that
You don't see
I am all the broken glass and picture frames
Consumed by all the worthless handshakes
But still, I long for everything
I know is just beyond my grasp
I'm reaching out
I'm reaching out
And I
Hurdle the barriers one by one
This should be you and not me
Up there ahead of this
And I
Tear my whole body to smithereens
This should be you and not me
But that is the one thing that
You don't see
You don't see
Oh, yeah
And still
With all of these songs that I sing
I mourn the end of the world
I mourn the end of our love
I mourn the end of the year
With all of these songs that I sing
I sing for things I have loved
I sing for things I still have
And sometimes it is all I am
You don't see
You don't see
You don't see
You
