Speak Not Its Name - The Wailing Wall

Speak Not Its Name Lyrics

And I know there is light in each crack in each corner
But I cling to the darkness forever a mourner
And when light comes to find me I will run to avoid it
Oh and how I have craved it in body , destroyed it
I could speak not its name
But It still would find me
I could break down its walls but it still would confine me
Oh oh
Hey oh oh
And the legs
Want to turn, want to leap, want to flea
And the eyes
Try to close so they don't have to see it
And the hands
Fold to fists so they don't have to feel it
And the face

Wears a mask so as not to reveal it
And the mind
Tries to chisel, tries to crop, tries to shape it
But it’s there, oh, it’s there, and you cannot escape it
Oh it's there , oh it's there and you cannot escape it
I could speak not its name
But It still would find me
I could break down its walls but it still would confine me
Oh oh
Hey oh oh
