Adolescents – Within These Walls

Within these walls

Within these walls is pain and strife

Within these walls it’s yours tonight

Within these walls you’ll sacrifice

Within these walls

We’re prowling to and fro

Prowling to and fro

Prowling to and fro

With nowhere else to go

We need a lamb to slaughter

On the center stage

Inside this house tonight

We’ll please the gods of rage

From the center stage

With our sacrifice

With our sacrifice

Within these walls

We don’t look the same

Within these walls

We all feel pain

We’re all in this game

Make no mistake

There comes a time to stand and fight

Or turn and walk away

The simple choice

Between wrong and right

To kill or pray

Blood’s been spilled all over the step

When you choose to lie

When the bleeding heart

In your traditions ran dry

Dreams are broken on the boulevard

Outside this house of blues

By misery makers, undertakers

Movers, shakers, liars, fakers

Dreams are broken on the boulevard

Within these walls
