These Walls Lyrics

Something missing, left behind
Search in circles, every time I try
I've been here before, yeah
I've seen you before
I can't escape walking down these halls
Hard to find a place where there are no walls
And no lines begging me to cross
Only straight ahead, better move along
Like clockwork, I commit the crime
I pretend to be everything they like
I've been here before, yeah
I've seen you before
I can't escape walking down these halls
Hard to find a place where there are no walls
And no lines begging me to cross
Only straight ahead, better move along
And I trade everything for this
And I trade everything for this

Why do I read the writing on the wall?
Why do I read the writing on the wall?
I won't lose my place in line
I've been here too long and I've spent too much time
I won't lose my place in line
I've been here too long and I've spent too much time
Something missing, left behind
Search in circles, every time I try
I've been here before, yeah
I've seen you before
I can't escape walking down these halls
Hard to find a place where there are no walls
And no lines begging me to cross
Only straight ahead, better move along
And I trade everything for this
And I trade everything for this
Why do I read the writing on the wall?
Why do I read the writing on the wall?
Why do I read the writing on the wall?
Why do I read the writing on the wall?
