White Wall - The Bob Seger System

Springtime of new years, the young thoughts see more dreams

While you live on the wind, how lovely it all seems

With moments yet unshared, and wishes incomplete

The stars above your head, the world beneath your feet

Suddenly your nights, begin to seem so long

There’s no one there to touch, when things start going wrong

You finally realise, you’ve never loved at all

And everywhere you look, you see the white wall

Your father’s been too far, your mother’s been too near

And now you’re on your own, withdrawing in your fear

Through long and sleepless nights, the foxes are running free

You long to be with them, when the scare meets the sea

You climb and then you fall, and then you try again

You curse yourself aloud, for living so weird

And took it to the ground, your eyes are filled with tears

Imprisoned there you lay, in the autumn of your years
