Lyrics

BEHIND THE WALLS

Voices are raised in the middle of the
night
A scream and shout
After seven years, just another fight
Your secret is out
A crash of plates, a lonely fear
Then all goes silent
The evil burns, its all too near
it turns him violent

Behind the walls, you cant confide
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Behind the walls, you sacrifice
Behind the walls, you?ll pay the price

Choices are made in the morning light
Now he?s sober
Promises he?ll change, he might
If not, its over
The pain so clear on her face
Black and blue
She takes the blame in his place
It?s nothing new

Chorus

it?s killing you inside
That?s why you hide
Behind the walls, behind the walls
Behind the walls, behind the walls

All is quiet, Sunday afternoon
Sleeping on the chair
Until he wakes and shouting very soon
Expects his tea to be there
Takes his anger out and hits once more
Hits her to the ground
She gently gets up off the floor
Doesn?t say a sound

Chorus

Behind the walls, behind the walls
Behind the walls, behind the walls
