if only the walls were thicker and then i wouldn't be able to hear my parents fighting if only the walls were thicker so when i'm talking to my bestfriends over the phone, they won't ask what's going on if only the walls were thicker and then i wouldn't have to tell them it's nothing if only the walls were thicker and then i'd be able to lie down on my bed not thinking about what's going on but focusing on myself and my studies if only the walls were thicker so i could sleep at night without having to hear them all the time if only the walls were thicker so i could close my eyes, even for a second if only it were true that everything was fine but now i'm listening to their arguments as a lullaby to fall asleep
