Walls Lyrics

There have been so many people walking through my door,
they don't seem to wanna come back anymore.
Well, I never ask them to,
I let them all go.
I guess I'm not the easiest one to talk to, and it's cold.

But I guess I'm alright, I guess I'm fine,
I think sunshine will treat me kind,
but now I'm feeling kind of locked up in this house of mine,
'cause these walls are killing me,
killing me when I am down.
I am not a warrior, but I can stay calm.
And these walls are breaking me, breaking me down,
but I'm living it, I'm living it and that's how it's done,
oh yes,
that's how it's done.

My house is full of flowers,
my room has a bed.
In the garden there are roses so colourful and red.
Well, people used to come here and pick a flower or two,
now nobody's coming in, no,
not even you.

But I guess I'm alright, I guess I'm fine,
I think sunshine will treat me kind,
but now I'm feeling kind of locked up in this house of mine,
'cause these walls are killing me,
killing me when I am down.
I am not a warrior, but I can stay calm.
And these walls are breaking me, breaking me down,
but I'm living it, I'm living it and that's how it's done,
oh yes,
that's how it's done.

So if you should ever come back,
don't knock on my door.
Just walk right in like you did before
and stay forever,
don't think about going home,
'cause this is where you all belong.

And we're gonna be alright,
we're gonna be so fine,
and sunshine will treat us kind,
but now I'm feeling kind of locked up in this house of mine,
'cause these walls are killing me,
killing me when I am down.
I am not a warrior, but I can stay calm.
And these walls are breaking me, breaking me down,
but I'm living it,
I'm living it
and that's how it's done,
oh yes,
that's how it's done
