[Joseph I sit up at night, at least three or four. Blood drippin' down my from knockin' skin on drywall. I see a like flashlights under chins, The I blink the more it happens again. Damn, victims from '89, Floatin' their on the wall like it's the last time. I'ma see 'em again the time everynight. The wall gets with every passin' daylight.
Spanolio] Are they in on me? confinin' me of me There's an that won't go away.
Yeah, I never that I was right inside my mind, But I'm over time I learned to climb the I'm sure that time I learned to right all of my wrongs. Sure right, Four walls reflectin' my Every That I sit and the replay.
[Chorus, Joseph me, These walls ain't me back. can't tell me where we at. I'm uncontainable.
me, These ain't holding me back. They tell me where we at. I in control.
Methric] 'em... I can 'em looking at me. I can even 'em talkin' when I'm trying to sleep. they start spinning they're just closing in And it's just too much to beat, I win. Don't grin, it ain't funny I just set it I had to the whole house to escape that maze I was burned my neck to my feet but it was worth it Until I back, I didn't even hurt.
Bruce] One wall surrounds me, no no floor. I fallin' as soon as I stepped through the door. walls, don't let me see a crack in the paint Or I'm focusing in, and I ain't. Clang-bang, I the walls and leave stains So the next man at least can see thangs. I think of my life relivin' memory Staring into the of my epitome.
Rouleau] Nothin' but walls, but alright. My back to the in the corner all night. (Even in the darkness) but walls, but it's alright. My back to the room in the corner all night. (These keep watchin' me.) but walls, but it's alright. My to the room in the corner all night. (Even in the darkness.) but walls, but it's alright. My to the room in the corner all night.
Lowrey] I catch myself starin' into a dark daze, Same place, new age, holes with rage. If they could talk they wouldn't say much Because I always keep myself locked and such. Just a sheltered life wasted away Like walls on a casket being put in a grave. So hours spent looking at nothing, But I on glaring, steady hoping for something.
Rouleau] I stare in this maze my cell gate. For eighty I been known as inmate 1-4-2-7-8. Walls confine me, on the noose every weekend. the guards take me for my shock treatment, I be leavin', out the space in my To the minds and unearth the undead. The problem is, I'm only out for two And I return to my coma and these walls and around me.
me, These walls ain't me back. They can't tell me we at. I'm uncontainable.
[Repeat three me, These walls holding me back. They can't tell me we at. I in control.
[James me. me back. me back. In control.
me. me back. me back. In control.
[Repeat me, These walls ain't me back. They can't tell me we at. I in control.
