Serj Tankian – Empty Walls: Lyrics and Music Video
Empty Walls Lyrics
Your empty walls …
Your empty walls …
Pretentious attention
Dismissive aprehension
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
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
I taunt you
To see
From behind those empty walls
From behind those empty walls
From behind those fucking walls
From behind those God damn walls
Those walls…
Those walls…
