These Walls Lyrics

close my eyes to this day
these walls are telling me nothing
turning my back on this day
oh these walls are telling me nothing
and the neighbors here don't understand
how i could miss you
and the spaces here are small
and their yelling makes them smaller
so i could never call you
the hours would never match
the neighbors holler
so i'll just wait until i'll see you again
and the neighbors here don't understand
how i could miss you
and the spaces here are small
and their yelling makes them smaller
so i'm closing my eyes to this night
sending off all my hopes on this flight
they just might reach you before i do
see you soon
and the neighbors here don't understand
how i could miss you
and the spaces here are small
and the yelling makes them smaller

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I love this song.

It's just .. beautiful. It's really hard to decipher anything Julie plays, but this song is just simply beautiful. Soft and mellow.

I think I could understand this song. Though I'm prbably wrong I can see it being about her missing the one she loves when he's over sees. But it's so hard to miss him because everyone she knows hates him. Without him, she feels small. With no one to understand, she feels even smaller.

I don't know. Just a guess.
