Walls
Anchor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The song "Walls" by Anchor is a powerful social commentary on the state of the world and the injustice that prevails in our societies. The lyrics are a poignant portrayal of the struggles of the common people against those in power who seek to oppress and subjugate them. As the song opens, the band questions the relevance of their struggle and speaks to the challenges of trying to be heard in a world where the masses are kept down.
The band then goes on to talk about how those in power have polluted our minds with lies and misinformation to keep us from realizing the truth. They highlight the injustice and inequality that exists in societies, where the rich and powerful have no regard for the poor and the marginalized. They describe how these powers that be have never seen the hunger and suffering that many face or cared for those who have been chased from their homes.
The lyrics are a call to action, urging people to come together to fight against this injustice and to free themselves from the cold-hearted world that they live in. The band encourages us to take back what is ours and to fight for what we believe in, to seek vengeance for the screams that have been left ignored. Overall, the lyrics of "Walls" speak to the power of unity and the need to stand up against oppression and injustice.

2009, still fighting to speak our minds, staying afloat when the masses are kept down.
Even in 2009, we are still struggling to vocalize our opinions, trying to survive while the majority is repressed.
Trying to make sense of these desperate times.
We are attempting to understand these troubled times we are in.
We can still set us free from this cold-hearted world.
We have the capability to break away from this uncaring society.
Pollute our minds, the earth and the sky. Force fed us lies before our jaded eyes.
Media poisons our thoughts, pollutes the world, and feeds us lies continuously.
Pollute our minds, the earth and the sky. Destruction till the last breath of life.
The world and our minds are getting dirtier until our last breaths on this planet.
The powers that be; unjust and obsolete. We know they only have served the bloodthirsty, they've never seen the hungry, never seen the cold. Never cared for those who were hunted from their homes.
Those in power are unfair and outdated. They only cater to the ones who indulge in violence, and never helped those who are hungry or homeless.
No love, no humanity. How can there be no love, no humanity? How can there be no love, no humanity?
There is a dire lack of love and humanity in the world, which we're questioning.
Set us free, set us free! no love!
We plead to be liberated from this brutal society, screaming 'no love!'
Darkness is closing in, the years of innocence are gone. It's time to put the fist down. To take back what is ours.
We are in a dismal situation, and it's now the right time to put an end to it and reclaim what rightfully belongs to us.
There will be vengeance for the screams they left ignored.
Our neglected screams will soon be avenged for.
