Empty Walls lyrics Serj Tankian

Empty Walls Lyrics

Serj Tankian

Songwriters: Tankian, Serj;

Your empty walls, your empty walls
Pretentious adventures, dismissive apprehension
Don't waste your time on coffins today
When we decline from the confines of our mind
Don't waste your time on coffins today

Don't you see their bodies burning, desolate and full of yearning
Dying of anticipation, choking from intoxication?
Don't you see their bodies burning, desolate and full of yearning
Dying of anticipation, choking from intoxication?

I want you to be left behind those empty walls
Told you to see from behind those empty walls
Those empty walls

When we decline from the confines of our mind
Don't waste your time on coffins today

Don't you see their bodies burning, desolate and full of yearning
Dying of anticipation, choking from intoxication?
Don't you see their bodies burning, desolate and full of yearning
Dying of anticipation, choking from intoxication?

I want you to be left behind those empty walls
Told you to see from behind those empty walls
Want you to be left behind those empty walls
I told you to see from behind those empty walls
From behind those empty walls
From behind those empty walls, the walls
From behind those empty walls

(I loved you yesterday)
From behind those empty walls
From behind those empty walls, the walls
(Before you killed my family)

Don't you see their bodies burning, desolate and full of yearning
Dying of anticipation, choking from intoxication?
Don't you see their bodies burning, desolate and full of yearning
Dying of anticipation, choking from intoxication?

I want you to be left behind those empty walls
Told you to see from behind those empty walls
(Desolate and full of yearning, dying of anticipation)
(Choking from intoxication)
I want you to be left behind those empty walls
(Don't you see their bodies burning, desolate and full of yearning
(Dying of anticipation, choking from intoxication?)
I told you to see from behind those empty walls

From behind those empty walls
From behind those fucking walls
From behind those goddamn walls
Those walls, those walls
