Wall

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Rou Reynolds] I'm gonna paste you up, cover you in wallpaper Screw shelves into you and call you a wall That's all you are to me, trying to keep people inside Inside your sordid little house This is no white abode You can have skirting board shoes And plug sockets on your knees I'll hang a painting on your lip And put tinsel 'round it at Christmas Trying to keep people inside Inside your sordid little house Trying to keep people inside Inside your sordid little house [Pre-Chorus: Rou Reynolds] You can't keep us inside much longer, pal We've seen the view from the window You can't keep us inside much longer, pal We've seen the view from the window [Chorus: Rou Reynolds & Rory Clewlow] It's glorious outside (Have you seen the tide?) Have you seen the tide? We'll sing all night! We need cohesion It's glorious outside (Have you seen the tide?) Have you seen the tide? We'll sing all night! We need cohesion [Verse 2] As time keeps moving, we keep losing our rights Freedom is not the choices between what job and what car You can just look back into history to find corruption and mystery And if we don't take note, we'll wake up in the same boat Trying to keep people inside Inside your sordid little house Trying to keep people inside Inside your sordid little house [Chorus: Rou Reynolds & Rory Clewlow] It's glorious outside (Have you seen the tide?) Have you seen the tide? We'll sing all night! We need cohesion It's glorious outside (Have you seen the tide?) Have you seen the tide? We'll sing all night! We need cohesion Have you seen the tide? Have you seen the tide? [Bridge: Rou Reynolds & all] Grit your teeth then break the glass Now sprint and don't look back Full pelt into the dense forest And ask him What's your thoughts on lionising What's your thoughts on the tensions rising Deep in the dense forest? [Outro: Rou Reynolds, Rory Clewlow, & (all)] Trying to keep people inside Inside your sordid little house Trying to keep, keep pe-people Inside your sordid little house That means nothing, whoa Trying to keep people inside, inside your sordid little house That means nothing, whoa Trying to keep, keep pe-people inside your sordid little house (Whoa, oh) That means nothing, whoa (Whoa, oh) That means nothing, whoa (Whoa, oh) That means nothing, whoa (Whoa, oh) (Whoa, oh) (Whoa)
