Walls
The walls of the theater are higher than me
They're higher than you'll ever be
The walls of my house touch the top of my head
The ceiling is bending in
I sit in an armchair I hold my knees together
Where did you run away to
I remember bloodshot eyes
You talked about open skies
Your old soul has faded into new
But you're still in the walls
In the walls
I can feel you trying to crawl
Trying to crawl up
You used to be a screamer and a dreamer
Now you're nothing at all
But you're still in the walls
In the walls
In the walls
The walls of your buildings are larger than life
They're nothing like I've ever seen
I thought if I look closely I might see you
Floating above in the wind
But there's lines around your mouth
And lines in your head
Shaped like a picket fence
Are you everything you thought you'd ever be
See I think you've forgotten
But you're still in the walls
In the walls
I can feel you trying to crawl
Trying to crawl up
You used to be a screamer and a dreamer
Now you're nothing at all
But you're still in the walls
In the walls
In the walls
The sun setting and rising
Your mother didn't come home last night
The big orange field
The boy in the back
The endless open light
Are you just a warning of what is after the storm comes down
Well I too
Well I do become warning to the ground
(Will I be warning to the ground)
Will I be in the walls
In the walls
In the walls
Trying to crawl
Trying to crawl up
Someone who was a screamer and a dreamer
And now nothing at all
But still in the walls
In the walls
In the walls
They're higher than you'll ever be
The walls of my house touch the top of my head
The ceiling is bending in
I sit in an armchair I hold my knees together
Where did you run away to
I remember bloodshot eyes
You talked about open skies
Your old soul has faded into new
But you're still in the walls
In the walls
I can feel you trying to crawl
Trying to crawl up
You used to be a screamer and a dreamer
Now you're nothing at all
But you're still in the walls
In the walls
In the walls
The walls of your buildings are larger than life
They're nothing like I've ever seen
I thought if I look closely I might see you
Floating above in the wind
But there's lines around your mouth
And lines in your head
Shaped like a picket fence
Are you everything you thought you'd ever be
See I think you've forgotten
But you're still in the walls
In the walls
I can feel you trying to crawl
Trying to crawl up
You used to be a screamer and a dreamer
Now you're nothing at all
But you're still in the walls
In the walls
In the walls
The sun setting and rising
Your mother didn't come home last night
The big orange field
The boy in the back
The endless open light
Are you just a warning of what is after the storm comes down
Well I too
Well I do become warning to the ground
(Will I be warning to the ground)
Will I be in the walls
In the walls
In the walls
Trying to crawl
Trying to crawl up
Someone who was a screamer and a dreamer
And now nothing at all
But still in the walls
In the walls
In the walls
