Quiet...
Warm....
Unable to speak a single word.

These white walls are taking me.

Saying the words we mean to no one.
It's the best way to kill the adolescent.

Familiar, restless, bleeding, constant.
I've given my eyes away to darkness
and locked all the entrances while
visions of angels dance in my mind.

Saying the words we mean to no one.
It's the best way to kill the adolescent.

This world is a thief to our eyes.
This world is a thieff in disguise.
If sight is lacking, take mine.
If sight is lacking, take my eyes.

I can hear them calling.
I can see them reaching out.
They're speaking my name.
They're pleading with my heart.

These white walls are taking me.
These white walls are taking.

Familiar, restless, bleeding, constant.

Saying the words we mean to no one.
It's the best way to kill the adolescent.

I can hear them calling.
I can see them reaching out.
They're speaking my name.
They're pleading with my heart.

    General Commentwhen i saw them a few months ago they said from the stage that its a song about suicide. "its the best way to kill the adolescent" is talking about teen death and what a large number suicide has contributed to it

    General Commentthe remaining portion of the temple of jerusalem is known as the wailing wall, or better know as the western wall.
    so i doubt there is any relation there.
