i hear everything it's my job to keep them contained
i wish i was more important but i guess i'll stay the same
i can hear her cry, laugh, smile
i wish i can enjoy and help
when she's down i want to step in cheer her up but i'm a wall not to big not to tall
i could hear her father abuse her
if i could speak i could help her
i could dry her tears
but i'll i do is stand and watch her tremble in fear
i can't bare to see her tears
if the walls could speak and make my life easier
i would help her like i provide shelter
but it's quiet on my side and i just watch her
i wish i could help and i wish i wasn't contain
cause if the walls could speak i would say
even though nobody loves you, i provide you shelter and maybe in another life if i was a pencil or a dollar i would travel the world or i would stop him from beating you.
but i'm just a wall not to big and not to tall
cause if walls could speak i would have a story to tell
because that girl i shelter doesn't deserve that at all
but only if walls could speak
