Slow down Tell me what have we done now Sat with folded hands on the couch Everything comes down now And it's too much for me to take in It's not fair for me to say that I can't breathe when they are falling To their knees and I have only Used my ears to listen Through paper thin walls Watching through tinted windows Oh what a shame it is Oh what a shame it is catastrophe Has gone and ruined everything The sunny days, the simple things Just do not feel the same for me We suffer due to selfish fault Our pain, our guilt, will be our fall Walking on coal, end of the world Maybe we won't make it at all Play just one more note, put it on repeat A waste of my time is all that I need If this is judgement, wash away my sins What more can I do while I listen behind Paper thin walls Paper thin walls around, I build To keep me safe and sound Watching through to see If anything happens to me Watch through tinted windows The less you see, the more you know Oh what a shame it is that we Have no one to blame but ourselves
