White Walls
White walls empty walls pure white
Such an infinite blank canvas
Enriched with expectation
Of all that may come to pass
White walls empty walls pure white
A life unlived a life unwritten
In the time of innocence
Before life's hurt has bitten
White walls empty walls pure white
A face unlined a heart unbroken
A heartbeat dancing with joy
The fatal lie still unspoken
White walls empty walls pure white
A hand untouched a hurt undefined
Everything left to play for
No need yet to hit rewind
White walls empty walls pure white
Fingers unburnt tempted by fire
Scorched seared and blackened
A soul emptied of desire
White walls empty walls pure white
A mind in prison a mind in chains
Lost without an exit sign
In a land where chaos reigns
White walls empty walls pure white
Boundaries of a life unloved
Scarred with the marks of torment
But those walls have never moved
Sometimes life hurts
