Lyrics
[palm-muted electric guitar, acoustic guitar strumming]
[Verse 1]
[male vocals enter]
I left your coffee cup on the counter...
still cold again... when I came home...
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, I can smell your perfume...
in the hallway air...
but why... I'm standing here alone...
again and again...
[Chorus]
[full band enters, driving drums]
These walls keep talking, talking...
But you're not here... to listen...
These walls keep talking, talking...
About the love we're missing...
These walls keep talking, talking...
And... I can't make them stop...
[Instrumental Break]
[electric guitar lead melody, steady drum beat]
[Verse 2]
[drums drop to kick and snare only]
The bed still holds... the shape of your body...
your pillow smells forever... like you...
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep checking my phone for your number...
but there's nothing coming through...
[Chorus]
[full band enters, driving drums]
These walls keep talking, talking...
But you're not here... to listen...
These walls keep talking, talking...
About the love we're missing...
These walls keep talking, talking...
And... I can't make them stop...
[Bridge]
[distorted guitar power chords, heavy snare hits]
I tried to pack your things away...
But every box just brings me pain...
Silence screams your name...
And I'm going insane [vocal belt, cymbal crashes]
[Guitar Solo]
[bluesy overdriven electric guitar solo, walking bass line]
[Verse 3]
[acoustic guitar only, soft vocals]
Neighbors ask me how you've been
I tell them that you're fine...
But deep down... I know the truth
You're never coming back...
[Final Chorus]
[full energy, layered vocal harmonies]
These walls keep talking, talking...
But you're not here... to listen...
These walls keep talking, talking...
About the love we're missing...
These walls keep talking, talking...
And... I can't make them stop...
These walls keep talking, talking
(These walls keep talking)
(These walls keep talking, talking)
Won't stop talking
(These walls keep talking)
And I can't make them stop
[Outro]
[acoustic guitar fades out]
[End]
