In Secret Waters
White Walls
Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The empty floors are getting longer
I feel alone and start to wander
Screams are piercing through my ears
Different people with same fears
Blue lights brighten up my room
Not long ago my life was in bloom
The hospital bed’s getting harder
And the needles feeling sharper
(Pre-Chorus)
Fading faces in the night
Silent prayers in the fight
I’m drowning in the quiet storm
Where’s the light to keep me warm
(Chorus)
These white walls are getting closer
Is my life soon to be over
Is the loneliness going to kill
Before the sickness will
Please just get me out of here
(Verse 2)
Shadows move like ghosts in the hall
I hear the echo of a distant call
Voices whisper, but they’re not mine
Counting the minutes, losing time
(Pre-Chorus)
Tubes and wires hold me tight
Keeping me from finding light
Every breath is laced with pain
Am I losing more than I can gain
(Chorus)
These white walls are getting closer
Is my life soon to be over
Is the loneliness going to kill
Before the sickness will
Please just get me out of here
(Bridge)
I see their faces through the glass
Nothing frail can ever last
Is there anyone who hears my cry
Or am I just left here to die
This room is cold, my face feels numb
Is this where the hope comes from
I’m reaching out, but no one’s there
Just emptiness and fading air
(Chorus)
These white walls are getting closer
Is my life soon to be over
Is the loneliness going to kill
Before the sickness will
Please just get me out of here
