Fences

I do what I can to keep my senses
Do what you want, build your fences
Take your time with your own time
Get it in your head, a bigger message

I do what I can to fill my senses
The mood inside leaves you restless
A rusty gate to the places
You could go but for fences

I got no properties that I’m leaning’ on
Got no sovereignty, we all belong
In that special place in humanity
Feel each and every one comin’ on
You know I’ve been down before
Waiting for it all
Watching while the grass grew
Greener on one side, but then I changed my mind
And I realized

Forget about sides, erase the borders
The devil’s rope, artificial order
But for the mind only traces
The rusty barbs of our fences

Well I got no properties that I’m leaning’ on
Got no sovereignty, we all belong
In that special place in humanity
Feel each and every one comin’ on
You know I’ve been down before
Waiting for it all
Watching while the grass grew
Greener on one side, but then I changed my mind
And I realized
