Facing the Wall - Joe Wilson

If I gave you the time that you need to survive

Do you promise me you’d make it out alive

And you don’t have to say yes

Just please keep this

We’re better off together than nothing at all

And I’m watching your hands by the by

To see if they’re reaching for mine

You said you’d grab your hat

Out the door in seconds flat

And I’m waking up facing the wall again

I don’t sleep anymore

I count breaths cause I’m bored

I come to life by the sound of your keys in my door

One look to your face

Puts me back in my place

And I’m waking up facing the wall again

Waking up facing the wall again

So meet plaster and paint my new friends

They’ll never leave in the end

So if anyone wants to leave

It would have to be me

And I’m waking up facing the wall again

Waking up facing the wall again

So if anyone wants to leave

It would have to be me

And I’m waking up facing the wall again
