"Tearin' Down The Wall of Denial" . . .

A wall of denial... is fallin’ down...
Whoa it’s fallin’ so hard
Down to the ground...
Never knew something so strong
could be washed away by tears...
But this wall of denial
was just built on fear...

We’ve all had our demons
from the garden of white lies...
Dressed them... amused them...
pullin’ wool over our eyes...
Go so far as to love them
to keep from letting them go...
All the while they were killin’ us
but we couldn’t let it show...

No matter what the trouble
we carry round inside...
We’re never safe from the truth
but in the truth we can survive
When this wall of denial comes tumblin’ down
Down to the ground...

Simple things in life
bring the greatest pleasure
A smile... a kiss...
a little baby’s laughter...
It makes no difference
if we run away in fear
The little things in life
hold us so near

No matter what the trouble
we carry round inside
We're never safe from the truth
but in the truth we can survive

When this wall of denial
comes tumblin’ down...
Yeah this wall of denial
must tumble down
Down to the ground...

Stevie Ray Vaughn
