Walls And Tall Shadows

Waterdeep

Carrie was stretching out on the harbor


She was just trying to let it all go


Down came the rain and waves and thoughts of her father


down came the old black hole





Carrie, don't go down there


We all know it's not fair


even parents can lie


Carrie, don't close your eyes


and give way to the lies


that tell you you're all alone





Ruby came home from the store with a bottle


all of her dreams had been locked up inside


since she was fourteen, she'd let out the throttle


and choked out her life





Ruby, don't look that way


you could start again today


you know your real Daddy smiles and smiles


Ruby, you know it's great-


Who you are- it's not too late


Youõre a child of the King





Kelly's been living under walls and tall shadows


She never lifted a finger to build


as for the sun well she can't seem to handle


that it brings to light to all she's killed





Kelly, don't look that way


it's time to come out and play


I know a safe sun to play in


Kelly, you look so frail


Like you've been in a jail


Pretty soon you will strengthen
