lyrics

Build a fence around your heart
Protect the jewel at the inside in the dark
Go over your tattoo in black marker
Make the seemingly permanent darker

But I have nothing to grab
And still, I can use the spaces I have

Build a fence around your home
Take it with you but just speak over the phone
Keep a record of words in your memory
Fake like you're shocked by cosmological symmetry

I try but I have nothing to grab
But still, I can use the spaces I have

Build a fence around someone else
Feel the space but still retain your sense of self
Feel the freedom that comes from being alone
But even then don't lose the thing makes you whole

But I have nothing to grab
And still, I can use the spaces I have

But fences tend to break
When rains do not abate
When they arrive day by day

You find to stay in place
To help forestall a sense of change
You need an iron gate

And if you want whats real
You need a fenceless field
And if you want to grow
Make it a spacious meadow
