Barry's Blues

Little red fist

Knocking on that big black door

This is a demolition

Start tearing down these cellar walls

Brick by brick

Board by board till the ceiling falls

Brick by brick

Board by board till the ceiling falls

I’ve been alone in the dark

Been so ashamed of the mess I left

I lost my restaurant

And three of my four best friends

And the one that’s left

She might never bake bread again

My only friend is never baking bread again

I stood at the door to the sky

And I just locked us up

I had a fist inside my chest

instead of love

For a moment you’ll be blinded

But then your eyes will adjust

I am bashing down this door

So buckle up

Little red fist

Punching through the other side

Grab your aviator glasses

Through the door to the sky

We crawl into the light

Inch by inch

Step by step

Till we are given sight

Inch by inch

Step by step

Out you climb
