Thru These Walls Lyrics

[Chorus]
I can hear through these walls
I can hear it when they're fooling around
I can hear through these walls
And I hear every sigh, every sound
I can hear through these walls
In the dark with the shades pulled down
Every word that they say
Every move they make feels it's coming my way

[Verse 1]
My favorite moment
Putting the glass up, next to the wall
Imagination
Though I see nothing, I hear it all
Putting my sign-up
Do not disturb me, speak or shout

[Pre-Chorus]
Inside out
Ooh, and my clothes, they're all laid out

[Chorus]
I can see through my windows
I can see the girls and the boys
I can see through my windows
And I can imagine the noise
I can see through my windows
I can see them playing with toys
Oh, I hope it won't end
If I promise not to touch, just be a friend

[Verse 2]
Life is so lonely
And I don't get high off just being me
I like pretending
Wanting to touch them, wanting to see
It's only normal
Creeping behind you, now don't shout

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause it's alright
They keep the windows locked and the door shut tight
Oh, I'm feeling like I'm locked in a cage
No way in, no way out
And it gets so lonely, am I really asking a lot
Just to reach out and touch somebody
Because when I look through my windows or open my door
I can feel it all around me

[Chorus]
I can hear through these walls
I can hear it when they're fooling around
I can hear through these walls
And I hear every sigh, every sound
I can hear through these walls
In the dark with the shades pulled down
And every word, ooh that they say
And every move they make feels it's coming my way

[Outro]
Ah, yeah
Ah, yeah
Ah, yeah
Ah, yeah
