a glimpse of something

so many pains and then you hit the wall
you won't expect the mountain to be there
when all you need is in the village square

it does not seem a hurtful height to fall
but all is magnified in this grey air
so many pains and then you hit the wall

inside each soul there is a solid ball
of honour and of treasure for our care
but not enough for each of us to spare
so many pains and then you hit the wall
