Lyrics I wrote one night after being inspired by a friend.

these walls
they come crashing down
within these walls
one cannot drown
within these walls
everything is numb
within these walls
within the rum

just close those eyes
those lifeless eyes
block out the cries
as your body dies

your eyes are open
there’s nobody home
mindlessly broken
soul free to roam

stare into the face of death and laugh
draw that final breath
the face of the chaplain
the empty walls
the face of death

your eyes are open
there’s nobody home
mindlessly broken
soul free to roam

these walls
falling with the heavens
these walls
angels fall by the millions
within these walls
one is numb
within these walls
deathly calm

take it in
take it all
let it within
those walls
all around
death calls
all around
the vermin crawls

your eyes are open
there’s nobody home
black consciousness
body brainless
soul free to roam

those walls
within those walls
memories
gone, never forgotten.
