The Wall Lyrics

Shivering bodies queuing

For distant drum and bass

This triple, double vodka's really put me in my place

Flashy new apparel

It better draw a crowd

It might if no one notices the logo's upside down

And now there's riots at the entrance

She crashed into my arms

My hopes were on a seesaw but I wouldn't waste my charm

And now I may be paraphrasing

But I'm certain at the time

It sounded like she wanted to convince me she was mine

I'm picking up on traces I'd happily miss

She's about as misplaced as the stamp on my wrist

Tell me if I'm alright

I haven't got all night

For the last three hours gone

I start to think you've got me wrong

Not the night for cliché

Skip the slow song DJ

This conversation has to end

You're talking to a wall again

Have you ever tried to dance away your problems

But your problems danced behind?

I felt the urgency to bring out my creative side

Cause it's my seventh cigarette break

And I don't even smoke

She's the rolling boulder guess who's Indiana Jones

And all that comprehending does is make you think twice

So I'll go on pretending that I'll catch other eyes

Tell me if I'm alright

I haven't got all night

For the last three hours gone

I start to think you've got me wrong

Not the night for cliché

Skip the slow song DJ

This conversation has to end

You're talking to a wall again

Empty hearts and makeup bags align

We all want to swim but no one takes the dive

Tell her you love her just to pass the time

We'll be fine

We'll be fine

Tell me if I'm alright

I haven't got all night

For the last three hours gone

I start to think you've got me wrong

Not the night for cliché

Skip the slow song DJ

This conversation has to end

You're talking to a wall again

Disregard the lesson

In my blank expression

I know when the morning comes

I'll blame it on the coke and rum

Damn this leather jacket

At this point you can have it

Or maybe its my cheap cologne

The wall and I are going home
