These Walls

That love won't take you higher
If I'm not involved
And that sun won't get no brighter
From in these walls
Oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah

Feel like I ain't shit
Feel like I ain't ever gonna be here
See me ridin' in a plane and I ain't flying it
Gotta take control again
Hopin' I ain't sold my soul to sort all of this out
I'm in my head until I write again
Well it's time to write again
And what I gotta say
Life on the weekend
That's one hell of a phase
All you need is love
Tell me do you got enough
When you scared to open up
Hands sweaty when you pray
Get up and wake up and see that
You got to go out and do something today (yeah, yeah)
You say you'll leave soon
It's been raining since noon
And you just wanna be lazy today (yeah, yeah)
But that love won't take you higher
If I'm not involved
And that sun won't get no brighter
From in these walls
Yeah, just another missed call
Just another cut tie
Stayin' in, called off just another long night
And rain falls on the window
Through the haze, it's hazy I can't see where my friends go
When's honesty been a sin though?
Ooh 'cause honestly pardon me, but part of me I think is in love
Yeah, that's alright with me
'Cause times like these don't happen very often, no
But it's times like these that get you out of bed
But I still got stains on my shirt it won't come out
Sittin' in the rain, praying, waiting for the sun out
Hope they understand, ain't it from the soul
Do it on my own, but I need you home
When you comin' home, yeah
And that love won't take you higher
If I'm not involved
And that sun won't get no brighter (and that sun won't get no brighter)
From in these walls (and that sun won't get no brighter)
(And that sun won't get no brighter)
I've been away from myself
And the rain still opens
Oh, and I'm always stuck outside
When all I need is a dry place to lose my mind
Get up and wake up and see that
You got to go out and do something today
Yeah, yeah
And that love won't take you higher, yeah
If I'm not involved
And that sun won't get no brighter (and that sun won't get no brighter)
From in these walls (and that sun won't get no brighter)
(And that sun won't get no brighter)
