Are you listening?
We write a thousand pages, they're torn and on the floor
Headlights hammer the windows, we're locked behind these doors
And we are never leaving, this place is part of us
And all these scenes repeating are cold to the touchMy hands seem to deceive me
When I'm nervous or when I'm healthy
The scenery's all drawnThey hang here from the walls dear
Painting pictures, bleeding colors
Blanket the windowsSometimes it gets so hard to breathe
Your eyes see right through meThese fights with your arms left beside
It's one thing and one more says goodnight
You've got the map, come get to me
These knuckles break before they bleedTear out these veins that own my heart
This skin that wears your lasting marks
I've built these walls, come get to me
Come get to meIs this your lesson, a slight discretion
The lines that keep you, the lines that sweep you
Lock the doors from the insideYour face is so contagious, it wears announcements
It leaves me breathless, I won't forget this
I won't forgetSometimes it gets so hard to breathe
Your eyes see right through meLet the walls have their say
Let the walls have their say
Let the walls have their say
Let the walls have their say
Let the walls have their say
Have their sayThere's no conversation, words without remorse
And this television drowns the only source
Wake from these dreams of you in my arms
To the staircase where you hold my heartThis place, these walls mean everything to me
