Listen, if you listen you will hear
a reckless heartbeat on the inside
Through the walls this sound is crawling,
down the corridors and halls
the windows and the doors
Well the rest won't listen,
though the walls have ears
But they never really look,
they just stand and stare
Who put the writing on the wall?
Oh, and I don't mind at all
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, talking to the walls?
So it's running, jumping, standing still
I think I've had enough of it all
Get your hands up, up against the wall
Who put the writing on the wall?
Oh, and I don't mind the walls
Oh, and I don't mind the walls
I feel it, I feel week week
I should have gone straight to the streets
I should have been a lawyer
I should have gone straight
Through the walls this sound is crawling
Down the corridors and halls
the windows, and the door
Well, the rest won't listen,
though the walls have ears
But they never really look,
they just stand and stare
Who put the writing on the wall?
Oh, and I don't mind the walls
Oh, and I don't mind the walls
Who put the writing on the walls?
Who fights and runs away?
The minutes and the hours
pass in chasing after day
The days and nights drag in two years
Oh, and I don't mind the walls
Oh, and I don't mind the walls
