Lyrics
Walls and ceilings
We are the people from the planet earth
But have you ever wondered what it's worth?
We chant around the steeples and toll the doomsday bell
and smiling we wish each other well
Fear and religion make up most the day
Tears and depression we wish it all away
We're hunting high we're looking low
to find that shining light
And all the time we wear the cloak of night
Walls and ceilings will without you knowing
Keep you from reaching where you were going
Walls and ceilings will without you knowing
Keep you from seeking and keep you from growing
Too many choices too hard for us to tell
Too many voices that sell a wishing well
Little did we know as we came into this world
Did you decide to be a boy or girl?
Walls and ceilings will without you knowing
Keep you from reaching where you were going
Walls and ceilings will without you knowing
Keep you from seeking and keep you from growing
