Talking to the Wall

There's a very old expression

Called talking to the wall

And it means

You get no answers

Just stone silence

But walls have ears

And you can hear me

When I call

I can feel it

Feel it in my bones

You really mean it

It is not a hoax

Sham bam

Thank you ma'am

Not for you

You're bona fide... ah

You don't come on

In a trojan horse

No hidden wires

To make me fall

What I see

Is what I get

Straight and true

My solid wall

You keep my chin up

Stabilise my highs and lows

You're extra special

Nothing superficial

You see right through me

Rust

Cracks

Warts and all

Nothing changes

I'm the last word

In what you want

You're as solid

As a wall

and I can

Lean against you

I can tell you

All my troubles

And I know

You'll hear me

Walls have ears

You can hear me

When I call

Talking to the wall
