Barbed Wire

Young man, but wise to the bone

From a youthless man who’s walked a lonely road

And no fear of picking up Daddy’s traits

He holds himself together with these barbed wire gates

Alone, we stand together we fall

Slow, that belief conquers all

So don’t let people hold you back

Gotta stand tall and aim higher

Don’t touch the barbed wire

I say, don’t let people hold you back

Gotta stand tall and aim higher

Don’t touch the barbed wire

Don’t touch the barbed wire

And watch him grow into a shell of a man

Everything is taking shape and going to plan

How quickly though, life can turn around

One step forward, two steps back, he’s lost in the crowd

Alone, we stand together we fall

Slow, that belief conquers all

So don’t let people hold you back

Gotta stand tall and aim higher

Don’t touch the barbed wire

I say, don’t let people hold you back

Gotta stand tall and aim higher

Don’t touch the barbed wire

Don’t touch the barbed wire

If you walk in your shadow

Led by shepherds then you know

If you walk in your shadow

If you walk in your shadow

Led by shepherds then you know

If you walk in your shadow

So don’t let people hold you back

Gotta stand tall and aim higher

Don’t touch the barbed wire

I say, don’t let people hold you back

Gotta stand tall and aim higher

Don’t touch the barbed wire

Don’t touch the barbed wire

Don’t touch the barbed wire

Don’t touch the barbed wire

Don’t touch the barbed wire
