These Walls Have Eyes

How can you decide what's better
From inside your heart
Better not to try
It's better not to start

Someone making love to you
It shows under the skin
Anyone can win
Someone like me can win

In it for the money
Whatever, whatever
In for the love
That hungers me for the start of things

Someone else's body
All your loving brings
There must be something more
Something more

These walls have eyes
These walls have ears
They see the lies
That hide the fears

They watch us live
They watch us grow
What lies ahead
What lies below

When that magnificent woman
Lays back
Behind the beat
Better not to sleep

Someone making love to you
Perform that magical skill
Go in for the kill
You move in for the kill

Kill for the money
Whatever it takes
Kill for the love
Waiting until the hunger breaks

Someone else's body
Your destiny
And even all that is sacred
Is sacred, is the secret, is mine

These walls have eyes
These walls have ears
They see the lies
That hide the fears

Each baby's cry
Each song is sung
These walls have heard
Each bell that's rung

If spiders crawl
These walls within
There's room for all
When fate steps in

We celebrate
All things we crave
What life is lost
What love we save

One for the money
Oh, the planet shakes whenever we burn
I want my love all over you
It's all the love was meant to be
We keep the secret with me

These walls have eyes
These walls have ears
They see the mask
That hides the years

One spark of joy
One voice to laugh
Those days foretold
In photograph

They watch us live
They watch us grow
What lies ahead
What lies below

These walls have eyes
These walls have ears
These walls have eyes
These walls have ears
They won't survive
For all the tears
