Empty Walls - Serj Tankian

Your empty walls…

Your empty walls…

Pretentious attention

Dismissive apprehension

Don’t waste your time, on coffins today

When we decline, from the confines of our mind

Don’t waste your time, on coffins today

Don’t you see their bodies burning?

Desolate and full of yearning

Dying of anticipation

Choking from intoxication

Don’t you see their bodies burning?

Desolate and full of yearning

Dying of anticipation

Choking from intoxication

I want you

To be

Left behind those empty walls

Taunt you

To see

From behind those empty walls

Those empty walls

When we decline, from the confines of our mind

Don’t waste your time, on coffins today

Don’t you see their bodies burning?

Desolate and full of yearning

Dying of anticipation

Choking from intoxication

Don’t you see their bodies burning?

Desolate and full of yearning

Dying of anticipation

Choking from intoxication

I want you

To be

Left behind those empty walls

Taunt you

To see

From behind those empty walls

Want you to be

Left behind those empty walls

I taunt you

To see

From behind those empty walls

From behind those empty walls

From behind those empty walls

The walls

From behind those empty walls

I loved you

Yesterday, before

You killed my family.

Don’t you see their bodies burning?

Desolate and full of yearning

Dying of anticipation

Choking from intoxication

Don’t you see their bodies burning?

Desolate and full of yearning

Dying of anticipation

Choking from intoxication

I want you

To be

Left behind those empty walls

Taunt you

To see

From behind those empty walls

Want you to be, left behind those empty walls

Taunt you

To see

From behind those empty walls

From behind those empty walls

From behind those fucking walls

From behind those goddamn walls

Those walls…

Those walls…
