You mighty wall,
That stands so tall,
Towering over me,
Looking down upon me,
Excluding me,
From the inside world,
With all the other,
Boys and girls,
So I spend my days,
Hopefully wishing,
For A gate to appear,
I have nothing,
To destroy your walls,
So I stand alone,
And dismantle you,
Stone by stone.

Impossible is not a word, just a reason not to try.~Kutless<br /> <br /> I&#039;m going to smile and make you think I&#039;m happy, I&#039;m going to laugh, so you don&#039;t see me cry, I&#039;m going to let you go in style, and even if it kills me - I&#039;m going to smile.~Anonymous
