White Wall Lyrics

There's a guard on the ground

An eye in the sky

And two men trying to hide

From the infrared

And the floodlight

Between them and the other side

They've been there for hours

After travelling for days

Now they're waiting for a chance to appear

On the final stretch

Where they lie close together

Shivering from cold and fear

They watch out for the wire

Ignore the danger signs

All their  dreams and desires

Are waiting behind

The white wall

The white wall

On the dark side of midnight

When the stars come out

They crawl closer to the line

Like swimmers on land

Strokes in sand

But it's just a matter of time

Before the moon betrays them

And the cameras work

They're caught and taken away

And the guard files their photos

And fingerprints

And the fake names they used today

Back on the wrong side of the wire

Faced by the danger signs

Their dreams are still

Hidden behind

The white wall

The white wall

The white wall

The white wall
