Song Descriptionit's about the thoughts and ideas that keep us from enjoying our freedom in Christ, attitudes that keep us from each other
Story Behind the Songit started with the the rythym guitar motif and grew from there. lyrically it grew from my own tendencies toward being hard on myself, you know the ones, "you should have, you could have......etc"
Lyrics
no time for sleeping my days away
that's just like holding a grudge
no time to look too closely at myself
don't want to wear that guilty glove
no time pretending I'm what I'm not
don't want to stonewall my heart
these ways are fences running round our souls
and they can keep our lives apart
Chorus
these fences round our souls
they're rusty daggers from days of old
these fences wreck my mind
I want to kick 'em down and shine
let's shine, let's shine, let's shine
no time to talk about what they just did
no time to cover their past
don't want to judge or condemn
just let me love another at last
no time to worry 'bout my next meal
or whether I'm in style
no time to feel a shame I do not own
it robs the body of its smile
