Listen

If you listen

You will hear an endless heartbeat

On the inside

Through the walls

The sound is crawling

Down the corridors and halls

It cracks the ceiling

The windows and the doors

All the rest won't listen

Though the walls have ears

But they never really look

They just stand and stare

They're all standing

Staring at the walls

Who put the writing on the walls?

Will no-one ever know?

Oh, well i don't mind the walls

Tell me

Why don't you tell me?

Have you got nothing to say?

Tell me where in hell this place is

Tell me why i get no answers

Am i talking, taking to the walls?

So it's running, jumping, standing still

Well i think i've had enough of it all

Get your hands up

Up against the wall

(well, i'm never going back to the factory

No i'll never be a part of the machinery)

Who put the writing on the wall?

Who fights and runs away?

The minutes and the hours pass him

Tracing out the days

The days and nights drag into years

And no-one ever knows

Oh, well i don't mind the walls

Oh, well i don't mind the walls

I don't mind the walls
