We all have got a role to play the lioness she stalks her prey he's bleeding in the tall grass, unaware his thrashing makes him easier to follow But when she gets him in her claws she'll invite him in because her cave is not a home without him, just a hole that is lonely and hollow
And can't you see the writing on the wall is drawing us together? It's written there in soot and ash and blood and that's furever. And so if you are terrified, of what you hide, remember That I'm still on your side, and that's furever...furever...
We all have got a role to play You'll be filling yours someday and I'll be filling mine until then we're killing time, hunting monsters in our minds and when I see you standing strong Pretending you don't want to play along I'll never make you blue (or make you pay) I'll tackle you into a pile to unwind
And can't you see the writing on the wall is drawing us together? It's written there in soot and ash and blood and that's furever. And so if you have been denied, choke up your pride, remember That I am on your side, and that's furever...furever...furever.
I don't have to argue, everybody knows you have issues, you lay your colors bare (in a manner of speaking) I'll be there when you finally decide to bare your heart, it's the part I want to share
And I don't have to argue, everybody knows you have issues, you wear them on your sleeves (so to speak) I'm not a thief, the only jewels that I need are your diamonds, and I find them following
The bows and arrows, in your words The words behind your broken teeth The broken glass that's under foot, and paw and hoof the high and low, whatever nonsense you believe
The vast unknown laid out ahead, The tears and anger, good and bad The big adventure still at hand, and paw and whiskers. Grey, blue, red, whatever, I will understand!
And can't you see the writing on the wall is drawing us together? We're written there in soot and ash and blood and that's furever And so if I've been too discrete, let me repeat, remember That I'm still on your side, and that's furever... furever...
