Short Side of the Wall - Bombadil

The short side of the wall is crumbling

I don’t know if I should blame someone

The short side of the wall is tumbling

Over and over until it is overrun

Lips of locks and hearts of rocks

Are losers that have won

Minds of bricks and souls of sticks

Are lined up one by one

The short side of the wall is mumbling

It was over before it begun

The short side of the wall is humbling

Stone by stone we own the revolution

Priests of light and acolytes

Will answer to no one

Weary dogs and rusty cogs

Are marching to the drum

What do you want to be

With all that you see

What do you want to have

With all that you have done

What do you want to do

Now that it’s through

For what do you long

Now that it is gone

The short side of the wall is sunken

And the future’s setting like the sun

The short side of the wall fell down

As the people fired off their guns

Children dream of times that seem

Forgotten by everyone

Devil’s bells and carousels

Already have begun
