lyrics

Behind these walls and backlit screens
We can't hear ourselves
There's no way to tell how high they rise
'Till you're standing underneath
There's no going back
There's no going back
There's no going back
So take what you may need

Behind these mirrors and strobe-light screams
The connection's lost
But there's sounds in the hall, they bounce back again
And we can hear them now
There's sounds in the hall
There's sounds in the hall
There's sounds in the hall
And when they bounce back that's the echoing

It takes me to a place
High above the lights I've always known
There's a feeling I can't shake
If you push me off the ledge I'll fall below
Now I'm bound to stay
If I stay too long you know I'll turn to stone
Even stones can break
But I won't be around long enough to know

Behind this veil the shadows fall
They're displacing light
But there's no way to tell which way is true
Until we make it through
There's signs up ahead
There's signs up ahead
There's sounds up ahead
And when they bounce back that's the echoing

It takes me to a place
High above the lights I've always known
There's a feeling I can't shake
If you push me off the ledge I'll fall below
Now I'm bound to stay
If I stay too long you know I'll turn to stone
Even stones can break
But I won't be around long enough to know

long enough to know

Behind these walls, behind these walls. . . .
