Wall

(album: Common Dreads - 2009)

I'm gonna paste you up, cover you in wallpaper
Screw shelves into you and call you a wall
That's all you are to me, trying to keep people inside
Inside your sordid little house
This is no white abode
You can have skirting board shoes and plug sockets on your knees
I'll hang a painting on your lip
And put tinsel 'round it at Christmas

Trying to keep people inside, inside your sordid little house
Trying to keep people inside, inside your sordid little house

You can't keep us inside much longer pal
We've seen the view from the window...
You can't keep us inside much longer pal
We've seen the view from the window...

It's glorious outside (Have you seen the time?)
Have you seen the tide?
(We'll sing all night) We need cohesion
It's glorious outside (Have you seen the time?)
Have you seen the tide?
(We'll sing all night) We need cohesion

As time keeps moving, we keep loosing
Our rights freedom is not the choices
between what job and what car
You can just look back into history
To find corruption and mystery
And if we don't take note, we'll wake up in the same boat

Trying to keep people inside, inside your sordid little house
Trying to keep people inside, inside your sordid little house

It's glorious outside (Have you seen the time?)
Have you seen the tide?
(We'll sing all night) We need cohesion
It's glorious outside (Have you seen the time?)
Have you seen the tide?
(We'll sing all night) We need cohesion
(Have you seen the time?)
Have you seen the tide?

Grit ya teeth then break the glass
Now sprint and don't look back
Full pelt in to the dense forest
And ask him
What's your thoughts on lionizing?
What's your thoughts on the tensions rising?
Deep in the dense forest

Trying to keep people inside, inside your sordid little house
Trying to keep people inside, inside your sordid little house
Trying to keep people inside, inside your sordid little house
Trying to keep people inside, inside your sordid little house
