THE COLOR OF THE WALLS

Hey ! Why should I be afraid
They know that I was there
They say I deserve it
Gray, the color of the walls
The world, even my soul
Do I have the right to complain
Walk, to occupy the mind
Aware of wasting time
Frustrated like a beast in cage
Pain is everywhere around
Silent or shouting loud
Soothing the families of the dead
Repeat the words in your head
Try to believe it’s not real
Wake-up with a knot in your stomach
Get up as a shadow of yourself, you know
You won’t be able to sleep again
Welcome to your worst nightmare
I wanna die before they do it
I have suffered enough already
Wanna go back in time, start again
Rebuild my life, change everything
Hey ! Why should I be afraid
Everyone knows the end
They say they will take care of me
White, the color of the walls
My sheets even my tongue
Pipes everywhere and shiny head
Talk, to understand more words
To stop making it worse
To do as if everything’s well
Prey cause it’s all that remains
When hope disappears in
The eyes of the men in blouses

Feel the warmth of the sunlight
Unable to heat-up your wounded heart
You see, time flies
But sadly life has no more meaning when
You know how it ends
