Walls & Tall Shadows Lyrics - Waterdeep

Carrie was stretching out on the harbor 

She was just trying to let it all go 

Down came the rain and waves and thoughts of her father 

Down came the old black hole 

Carrie, don't go down there, we all know it's not fair 

Even parents can lie 

Carrie, don't close your eyes and give way to the lies 

That tell you you're all alone 

Ruby came home from the store with a bottle 

All of her dreams had been locked up inside 

Since she was fourteen, she'd let out the throttle 

And choked out her life 

Ruby, don't look that way, you could start again today 

You know your real daddy smiles and smiles 

Ruby, you know it's great, who you are, it's not too late 

You're a child of the king 

Kelly's been living under walls and tall shadows 

She never lifted a finger to build 

As for the sun, well, she can't seem to handle 

That it brings to light to all she's killed 

Kelly, don't look that way, it's time to come out and play 

I know a safe sun to play in 

Kelly, you look so frail like you've been in a jail 

Pretty soon you will strengthen 

Ruby, don't look that way, you could start again today 

You know your real daddy smiling 

Ruby, you know it's great, who you are, it's not too late 

You're a child of the king 

You're a child of the king 

You're a child of the king
