Within Walls

We share the lobby, but you're really on the hundredth floor
When you come down, it's just because you're feeling singular
Dark thoughts of going up there, obscured by what I think I need

Dark thoughts: they go away with the patience of the tallest wave
And it's been a trip chasing every synapse you've been wired with
And I feel so alone, but I've found a place where I can try to go
Where all things are laid out in a way I understand

I can't stop this, I can't stop this
I won't
I guess I didn't want to

Tell me how to feel when you're at home with someone else
And I can hear you dancing in the spotlight of my mind
But I won't open my eyes when I can't bear to realize
That I'm not who you've wanted, 'cause I'm not good enough

I can't stop this, I can't stop this
I won't
I guess I didn't want to
I want to
I don't

Paint the floor wet and we'll lay down: we'll make angels here now
As you burn your insides and I make headway on mine
Now we're long dead from sickness, but our outlines tell secrets
As our bones just lie here in this building's last years

This is what we know of how you hurt us so
This is what we know of how you hurt us so
This is what we know of how you hurt us so
This is what we know of how you hurt us so
This is what we know of how you hurt us so
This is what we know of how you hurt us so
This is what we know of how you hurt us so
This is what we know of how you hurt us so
This is what we know of how you hurt us so
This is what we know of how you hurt us so
