There's a perfect blue sky day
On the other side of my window pane
Anybody in his right mind would be
Out there in the sun
See a couple kids running past
Bare footing in the green green grass
Behind these walls
Is cold and gray
It's a different world up inside these shades
There's a lonely man with memory
Thinking back to how it used to be
Behind these walls
Wasn't all that long ago
I carried you through that new front door
And for a while it seemed like you
Would spend forever here
Then somebody came and changed your mind
And you went and left me behind
Behind these walls
Is cold and gray
It's a different world up inside these shades
There's a lonely man with memory
Thinking back to how it used to be
Behind these walls
I'm just a shadow
That haunts these halls
Slow moving silhouette
That's all
Getting out would do me good
I'd get out of here if I could cause
Behind these walls
It's and gray
It's a different world up inside these shades
There's a man with memory
Thinking back to how it used to be
Behind these walls
Yeah behind these walls
