Empty Walls


Your empty wallsYour empty wallsPretentious attentionDismissive apprehensionDon’t waste your time, on coffins todayWhen we decline, from the confines of our mindDon’t waste your time, on coffins todayDon’t you see their bodies burning?Desolate and full of yearningDying of anticipationChoking from intoxicationDon’t you see their bodies burning?Desolate and full of yearningDying of anticipationChoking from intoxicationI want you to beLeft behind those empty wallsTold you to seeFrom behind those empty wallsThose empty wallsWhen we decline, from the confines of our mindDon’t waste your time, on coffins todayDon’t you see their bodies burning?Desolate and full of yearningDying of anticipationChoking from intoxicationDon’t you see their bodies burning?Desolate and full of yearningDying of anticipationChoking from intoxicationI want you to beLeft behind those empty wallsTold you to seeFrom behind those empty wallsWant you to beLeft behind those empty wallsI told you to seeFrom behind those empty wallsFrom behind those empty wallsFrom behind those empty wallsThe wallsFrom behind those empty wallsI loved you, yesThough they beFor you killed my familyDon’t you see their bodies burning?Desolate and full of yearningDying of anticipationChoking from intoxicationDon’t you see their bodies burning?Desolate and full of yearningDying of anticipationChoking from intoxicationI want you to beLeft behind those empty wallsTold you to seeFrom behind those empty wallsWant you to be, left behind those empty wallsTold youTo seeFrom behind those empty walls (4x)Those walls …. those walls….                                            -Serj Tankian-
