Going Away To Collage

Lyrics

She lives in a small Dutch town Just 15 minutes from the German border And everything there is brick and cobblestone; The church where her Oma religiously attends - it's made of brick And they have a wall, and they put glass on the top to stop people from climbing over - the wall was brick as well And she fancied herself a rider but she never put her heart to it She just spent her time with her brother And she always dreamed of escaping Escaping to another city Where she could pursue her dreams, all her dreams And it was always in the back of her mind that they built this wall with glass in it They built a wall, with glass in it A wall with glass that stopped people from climbing over To see the other side, to see the other side A wall with glass, a wall with glass And she had this idea, that she would sleep forever Live in her dream So she took her small Italian car to Den Haag and walked the rest of the way to the ocean She would walk in, and she could dream of the bottom And death and Hades had their way with her She didn't dream - she had but nightmare And in her rest she'd cry out, she'd cry out That there was always a wall with glass A wall with glass in it to stop people from climbing over To stop people from climbing over
