The Offspring
Behind Your Walls
[Verse]
Tell me, how do I read you when all I see is a stare?
How do you look for the signs when nothing is there? So you think

[Hook 1]
When the water won't cut the flame, and the anger drives you insane
Tell me, how does it look from behind your walls of pain?

[Chorus]
Tell me, how do I reach you when all I see is a stare?
How do you look for the signs when nothing is there? So you think

[Hook 1]
When the water won't cut the flame, and the anger drives you insane
Tell me, how doеs it look from behind your walls of pain?

[Refrain]
Walls of pain
Behind the walls, bеhind the walls of pain (Pain)

[Hook 2]
When you just can't take any more, and the last lights fade from the shore
Tell me, how does it look from behind your walls of pain?

[Bridge]
I've been thinkin', spendin' my time worryin'
About the way you don't seem the same
Hopin', waitin' for back how you were again
There's gotta be something I can say
[Refrain]
Behind the walls, behind the walls of pain (Pain)

[Hook 3]
When the faces all look the same, and the angels cry out your name
Tell me, how does it look from behind your walls of pain?

[Bridge]
I've been thinkin', spendin' my time worryin'
About the way you don't seem the same
Hopin', waitin' for back how you were again
There's gotta be something I can say

[Verse]
Tell me, how do I reach you when all I see is a stare?
And how do you look for the signs when nothing is there? So you think

[Hook 4]
But I'm steppin' out on the ledge, so before you go over the edge
Tell me, how does it look from behind your walls of pain?

[Post-Chorus]
Behind your walls of pain
Behind your walls of pain
Behind your walls of pain
Behind your walls of pain
