Listen If you listen You will hear an endless heartbeat On the inside Through the walls The sound is crawling Down the corridors and halls It cracks the ceiling The windows and the doors All the rest won't listen Though the walls have ears But they never really look They just stand and stare They're all standing Staring at the walls Who put the writing on the walls? Will no-one ever know? Oh, well I don't mind the walls Tell me Why don't you tell me? Have you got nothing to say? Tell me where in hell this place is
Tell me why I get no answers Am I talking, taking to the walls? So it's running, jumping, standing still Well I think I've had enough of it all Get your hands up Up against the wall (Well, I'm never going back to the factory No I'll never be a part of the machinery) Who put the writing on the wall? Who fights and runs away? The minutes and the hours pa** him Tracing out the days The days and nights drag into years And no-one ever knows Oh, well I don't mind the walls Oh, well I don't mind the walls I don't mind the walls
