Walls Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I feel at home with shadows from ghosts of the living
I dance along to melodies as silent choirs sing
I’m sick of always giving when there’s nothing left to lose
This place we’re in is breaking, it’s trying to break me too

[Chorus:]
I built these walls to keep the outside world from me
And I’ll fight to stay in the hell of my own mind
It’s safer on the inside
Underneath where you can’t ever get to me
And I’ll fight to stay in the hell of my own mind
It’s safer on the inside

[Post-Chorus]
Built these walls, it’s safer on the inside
Built these walls, it’s safer on the inside

[Verse 2]
Chaos reigns inside of all of us
All this pain, it’s not where I belong
It’s not my fate and you’re a hypocrite
You’re the dying proof of it, now I know
Broken people just like you can be so dangerous
Knowing you’ll survive by feeding off the rest of us

[Chorus:]
I built these walls to keep the outside world from me
And I’ll fight to stay in the hell of my own mind
It’s safer on the inside
Underneath where you can’t ever get to me
And I’ll fight to stay in the hell of my own mind
It’s safer on the inside

[Post-Chorus]
Built these walls, it’s safer on the inside
Built these walls, it’s safer on the inside
Built these walls, it’s safer on the inside
Built these walls, it’s safer on the inside

[Bridge]
It's safer on the inside
It's safer on the inside

[Chorus:]
I built these walls to keep the outside world from me
And I’ll fight to stay in the hell of my own mind
It’s safer on the inside, it's safer on the inside
Underneath where you can’t ever get to me
And I’ll fight to stay in the hell of my own mind
It's safer on the inside

[Post-Chorus]
Built these walls, it’s safer on the inside
Built these walls, it’s safer on the inside
Built these walls, it’s safer on the inside
Built these walls, it’s safer on the inside
