*“we break things not just as a means of release but also to see some other thing broken aside from ourselves.”* You asked me how I got my hand broken And I told you it’s because the walls aren’t getting any weaker While I, I am tired of trying hard and I’m too worn out to fight I am fed up with all the things I used to love so I’ve been thinking ’bout taking my life but I see the walls are all around and I get the urge to let it out and so i do… If I can no longer speak, the walls would for me; they’d tell you a story on how I turn into something else when I’m sad, and how they stop me when I’m not in the right mind and they’d tell you about these little scars I have, and all of the frustrations I’m keeping inside. You asked why and I told you, ’cause they hear me, when no one else will and they feel it all, every inch of my skin when I lay it on them so if walls could speak, they’d tell you how I hurt them to hurt me every single night.
