Through Ten Walls - Birdeatsbaby

Through Ten Walls you gently breathe

A rhythm only known to you and me

I would scratch these bricks away

So through the hollows you can hear me say:

«I have seen your misery

You’ve always had a hold over me

Eyes so wide to blind the fates

But your sleep has kept so awake»

Through ten walls you rest alone

Buried shallow under precious stone

It won’t be too long before

Guilty hands come knocking on your door

Now you rise, you have become

A symbol of all I cannot trust

I may make these mountains move

But you turn them to dust

It’s the life you chose and how

The years have frozen you my darling

How the consequences of your actions

Lead us to sever and betray

I know

It’s not like I’ll ever know

If you and I could roll away the stones

I can’t give up my beliefs in who we are
