Walls
Unno Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The old song plays loud
You learn the new words but you don't like them
It's all way too loud
You go hard your heart is telling you to
You were raised a smile
You learn the new words but you don't like them
It's all way too loud
Stark day and the dream is far
Better stop the walls before
Time has many speeds and this one's too slow
Last day and the first of all
What if this is good?
You're 20 feet tall, you're 20 feet tall
First day, not the last at all
See a queen born
Every man is a king, and every man is a 2
I love you, and I know it all
Look where the pain fades
I hope you smile now, I hope you do too
Stuck in these walls and they get closer
The old song plays loud
You learn the new words but you don't like them
It's all way too loud
