The Walls was inspired by, well, my depression. My friend and I are both the same way and I wrote this song just to, pretty much, rant.

Pictures in my mind
Lyrics on my tongue
Blood on the paper
Nothing new at all
Hiding from the world
Feeling it cave in
They're fighting for my soul
But I already gave in

And I've cried a thousand tears at least
All I want is what I need, why does nobody see?

The walls know my secrets
They know everything I hide
The walls know the deepest
The darkest fears inside
The walls and I at night

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

Wars and battles won
But souls and minds lost
Nothing ever stays
And nothing's ever gone
Your words running around
In the tears that my cheeks embrace
I don't wanna wish the pain away
I just want to know I won't break today

And I've lied a thousand nights at least
I'm not alright, I'm not fine, why does nobody see?

The walls know my secrets
They know everything I hide
The walls know the deepest
The darkest fears inside
The walls and I at night

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

And I've cried a thousand tears at least
All I want is what I need, why does nobody see?
And I've lied again tonight - once or twice at least
I'm not alright, I'm not fine, why does nobody see?

The walls know my secrets
They know everything I hide
The walls know the deepest
The darkest fears inside
The walls and I at night

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
