When I was young I used to scream
And hope the world would hear me
I'm growing quieter every year
Writing for those who listen
Serenading a brick wall
That's all
I'm serenading a brick wall
Some cops they put guns to my head
And called me fucking faggot
Today I do not hate those men
Mostly feel sorry for them
They work as pawns defending laws
That are so flawed
They'll spend their lifetimes misinformed
When I was young I used to dream
Of utopias and heavеns
I'll probably never see those things
But livе as if they'll exist
There's possibilities
Beyond what we've got
And if I settle before I'm gone
Then I'm lost
If no one ever hears this song
So what?
I serenaded a brick wall
