Walls

A song I wrote a while ago about my parents divorce.

Tell me how it feels
When you can't live in the same house together
When the walls start closing in
And suddenly you find the end of forever
Where waking is a nightmare
And dreaming is the safest place to be
When these crushing walls crumble down
What will you see?

I'm sorry but I can't forgive this
The destruction of everything that made me smile
Don't make promises that won't be missed
I've been hanging on your lies a while
I've been broken and lost for a while

All the pictures on the walls are talking
About a warmth that I felt long ago
And it's sad cause I don't remember that feeling
And I don't think that you'll ever know

I'm sorry but I can't forgive this
The destruction of everything that made me smile
Don't make promises that won't be missed
I've been hanging on your lies a while
I've been broken and lost for a while

I walk alone
Don't wanna come home
Cause that's where my nightmares are waiting
And you'll never know
How far I would go
It's the knife or the noose I'm debating

I'm sorry but I can't forgive this
The destruction of everything that made me smile
Don't make promises that won't be missed
I've been hanging on your lies a while
I've been broken and lost for a while

When these crushing walls, crumble down
What will you see?
