Maybe we should switch careers 'Cause baby, you know no one beats our poker faces And when the night ends up in tears Wake up and we blame it all on bein' wasted Oh, this love is fadin' So much we're not sayin' But if these walls could talk (They'd say) "Enough" (They'd say) "Give up" If these walls could talk (They'd say) "You know" (They'd say) "You're fucked" It's not supposed to hurt this much Oh, if these walls could talk They'd tell us to break up (These walls, these walls, these walls) They'd tell us to break up (These walls, these walls, these walls, these walls) They tell us, "Go and face your fears" It's getting worse the longer that we stay together We call it love but hate it here Did we really mean it when we said "forever"?

I feel so numb staring at the shower wall It's begun, the feeling that the end has come And now the water's cold I tried to eat today But the lump in my throat got in the way In this time, I've lost all sense of pride I've called a hundred times If I hear your voice, I'll be fine And I, I can't come alive I want the room to take me under 'Cause I can't help but wonder What if I had one more night for goodbye If you're not here to turn the lights off, I can't sleep These four walls and me I lay in bed, can't seem to leave your side Your pillow's wet from all these tears I've cried I won't say goodbye I tried to smile today Then I realised it's no point anyway In this time, I've lost all sense of pride I've called a thousand times If I hear your voice, I'll be fine And I, I can't come alive I want the room to take me under 'Cause I can't help but wonder What if I had one more night for goodbye If you're not here to turn the lights off, I can't sleep These four walls and me Oh Oh, and I, I can't come alive (can't come alive) I want the room to take me under (oh) 'Cause I can't help but wonder Wonder what if I had one more night for goodbye If you're not here to turn the lights off, I can't sleep These four walls and me

I'm here And it's in these walls I'm still me But it's in these walls All that we said And all that we did Is right in here! In these walls of mine So I redecorate And I repaint Huge, flowery tapestries Ought to do it. I carefully cover Every inch of before And when I'm done I'm gonna sit down And maybe I'll invite you over.

Tunnel vision at blinding speed Controlling my thoughts, obsessing me Void of any uncertainty Throughout my very soul Lost illusions of mind control Resisting all hope of letting go Racing impulse of dark desire Drives me through the night I try to shut it down It leaves me in the dust No matter what I've found I can never get enough Frantic actions of insanity Impulsive laced profanity Long for elusive serenity Way out of my control Traveling through both space and time Out of body, out of mind Out of control My wheels in constant motion Spinning round and round it goes I can't let up, I can't let go Can't stop this flame from burning Forever more, into the night, blistering Focus here, focus there Cannot see the light Falling down through the night Sprawling everywhere Searching left, searching right Panic setting in I can no longer fight When will this end? Accelerate, dislocate Set to crash and burn Haven't got time to waste Not planning to return Aggravate, agitate When will I ever learn? There's no way out of here Nowhere to turn Obsessive yearning Compulsive burning Still never learning Insane random thoughts of neat disorder Scattered wasteland surrounding me Tattered memories of what used to be Apocalyptic mind debris Until we meet again Traveling through both space and time Out of body, out of mind Out of control My wheels in constant motion Spinning round and round it goes I can't let up, I can't let go Can't stop this flame from burning Forever more, into the night, blistering Traveling through both space and time Out of body, out of mind Out of control My wheels in constant motion Spinning round and round it goes I can't let up, I can't let go Can't stop this flame from burning Can't stop the wheels from turning Traveling through both space and time You get yours and I got mine Out of control My wheels in constant motion Spinning round and round it goes I can't let up, I can't let go Can't stop this flame from burning Forever more, into the night, blistering

To rise, to fall To hurt, to hate To want, to wait To heal, to save Can't hear it, we fear it Awareness won't come near it Distractive, reactive Disguised in spite of time I never bared my emotion My passion always strong I never lost my devotion But somewhere fate went wrong Can't let them rape me again Your venom's not family here Won't let them fill me with Fatalistic remedies What if the rest of the world Was hopelessly blinded by fear? Where would my sanctity live? Suddenly nobody cares It's never enough You're wasting your time Isn't there something I could say? You don't understand You're closing me out How can we live our lives this way? You tell me I'm wrong I'm risking my life Still, I have nothing in return I show you my hands You don't see the scars Maybe you'll leave me here to burn What if the rest of the world Was hopelessly drowning in vain? Where would our self pity run? Suddenly everyone cares Blood... heal me Fear... change me Belief will always save me Blood... swearing Fear... staring Conviction made aware Give up on misery Turn your back on dissent Leave their distrust behind Wash your hands of regret Do you feel you don't know me anymore? And do you feel I'm afraid of your love? And how come you don't want me asking? And how come my heart's not invited? You say you want everyone happy Well, we're not laughing And how come you don't understand me? And how come I don't understand you? Thirty years say we're in this together So open your eyes People in prayer for me Everyone there for me Sometimes I feel I should face this alone My soul exposed It calms me to know that I won't Blood... heal me Fear... change me Belief will always save me Blood... swearing Fear... staring Conviction made aware Give up on misery Turn your back on dissent Leave their distrust behind Wash your hands of regret Blood... heal me Fear... change me Belief will always save me Blood... swearing Fear... staring Conviction made aware Learning from misery Staring back at dissent Leaving distrust behind I'm inspired and content

He seemed no different from the rest Just a healthy normal boy His mama always did her best And he was daddy's pride and joy He learned to walk and talk on time But never cared much to be held And steadily he would decline Into his solitary shell As a boy he was considered somewhat odd Kept to himself most of the time He would daydream in and out of his own world But in every other way he was fine He's a Monday morning lunatic Disturbed from time to time Lost within himself In his solitary shell A temporary catatonic Madman on occasion When will he break out Of his solitary shell He struggled to get through his day He was helplessly behind He poured himself onto the page Writing for hours at a time As a man he was a danger to himself Fearful and sad most of the time He was drifting in and out of sanity But in every other way he was fine He's a Monday morning lunatic Disturbed from time to time Lost within himself In his solitary shell A momentary maniac With casual delusions When will he be let out Of his solitary shell
