These walls

You try to catch my eye
You look for secrets so surprised
you tell me i've been acting quiet
but i'm o.k.
i've really always been this way
it's very dark inside
darkness keeps me with the light
 
in these walls i built for you
hidden locks i can't undo
in these walls i built for you
 
it's not to do with you
it's not the things you say or do
it's not an answer or a clue
it's not that hard
the truth has left your vision scarred
there's so much space in here
silence, covered up by tears
 
in these walls i built for you
hidden locks i can't undo
in these walls i built for you
there's a point you might get through
in these walls i built for you
 
in the midst of it all
of what little is left
falling, falling, fall away
levels form upon words
growing stronger with time
say it, say it, say anything
and all the while i built it here
 
i told you long ago
i told you how one never knows
i told you that's just how it goes
were you inspired
from where i stand you look quite tired
but are you hiding, too
careful, i just saw you move.
 
in these walls i built for you
hidden locks i can't undo
in these walls i built for you
there's a point you might get through
in these walls i built for you
