Verse 1:
Listen, if you listen, you will hear
A reckless heart beat
On the inside
Through the walls the sound is crawling
Down the corridors and halls
It cracks the ceiling, 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
There all standing, staring at the walls (walls, walls)
Chorus
Who put the writing on the walls
Will no one ever know
Oh Hoh and I don’t mind the walls
Verse 2:
Tell me, why won’t you tell me
Have you, got nothing to say
Tell me where in the hell this place is
Tell me, why I get no answers
Am I talking, talking to the walls
Someone’s running, jumping, standing still
I think I’ve had, enough of it all
Get your hands up, up against the wall
Chorus
Who put the writing on the walls
Will no one ever know
Oh Hoh and I don’t mind the walls
Oh Hoh and I don’t mind the walls
I don’t mind the walls
Verse 3:
(Shake it to me, shake it to me…)
Through the walls the sound is crawling
Down the corridors and halls
It cracks the ceiling, 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
They’re all standing, staring at the walls (walls, walls)
They’re all standing, staring at the walls (walls, walls)
They’re all standing, staring at the walls (walls, walls)
Chorus
Who put the writing on the walls
Will no one ever know
Oh Hoh and I don’t mind the walls
Oh Hoh and I don’t mind the walls
I don’t mind the walls
Chorus/Subverse
Who put the writing on the walls
Who fights and runs away
The minute Sunday hours passing,
Chasing out the days.
The days and nights back into years
And no one ever knows
Oh Hoh and I don’t mind the walls
Oh Hoh and I don’t mind the walls
I don’t mind the walls
