Great Barriers

Lou got thrown out of her house
It was the second week in May
She could tell you the whole story
But all those stories just sound the same

She said, "People are so nasty
Well how could we make it out alive?
How could a poet see the beauty
In a beggar's squawk for a dime?"

She put a lid on half the town
She was only just sixteen
And no one talks about it now
But if they crack
They owe a dollar to the Queen

"I can feel it in my bones
But I-I don't know if you can feel
I'm so tired of being alone
So tired of the things I hear
So tired of the things I feel"

I'm not trying to pierce your heart
Just wanna show you what I mean
If we can overtake the barrier
We can reach your Queen
Yeah, we can reach your Queen

"And I've chased some scary things
Into some okay dreams
I'm facing scary things
But I'm doing okay

And there's lots of people struggling
Lots of problems that are real
Well just because I'm feeling lonely
That don't mean I always will"
