Hallways Lyrics

When the hallways call out

Every word you said

To the air inside your lungs

To the voice inside your head

To your summers, inside

Counting down the days

Til the oceans overflowed

Til the tickets wouldn't take

And you'd say...

I watched as the words passed over me

I watched them disappear so out of reach

But barely reaching

Barely anything at all

And oh, it's been a while now

Bloodshot eyes won't hear a sound

When I don't come around

Won't come around

To the house I grew up in

To the lies that I have lived

I think it's time to shed this skin

When the hallways call out

Every word you said

To the air inside your lungs

To the voice inside your head

To your summers, inside

Counting down the days

Til the oceans overflowed

Til the tickets wouldn't take

And you'd say...

I watched as I moved with foreign feet

I saw a year disappear so out of reach

But barely reaching

Barely anything at all

And oh I hope you're forget about

All those nights I came around

I hope they're better now

Are they better now?

Than the life that you have lived

To the time that you have spent

When the walls were closing in

When the hallways call out

Every word you said

To the air inside your lungs

To the voice inside your head

To your summers, inside

Counting down the days

Til the oceans overflowed

Til the tickets wouldn't take

And you'd say...
