Intro – low, emotional]
Yeah…
It’s crazy how a house can feel so empty…
When it’s just you and your thoughts…
(Background harmonies)
“all alooone…”
“four wallsss…”
⸻
[Verse 1]
Starin’ at these four walls every night,
TV on but it don’t feel right.
Silence louder than the city outside,
Ain’t nobody here when I close my eyes.
Kitchen cold, lights dim in the hall,
Echoes every time I make a call.
Everybody need me when they fall,
But who there for me when I hit the wall?
I keep my pain tucked behind these jokes,
Smile so nobody notice I’m broke.
Mentally tired, spiritually low,
But I still tell everybody I’m good though.
(Background Ad-Libs)
“you good?”
“yeah…”
“aloneee…”
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – airy build]
And these four walls know my secrets…
Every night they hear me thinkin’…
Tryna fight this feelin’ in my chest…
But I’m tired of holdin’ it in…
⸻
[Chorus – emotional & repetitive]
Lead
These four walls…
Know everything about me…
These four walls…
The only ones around me…
Background Harmonies

I been fightin’ demons by myself…
Tryna keep my heart from needin’ help…
Late nights, I just sit and stare…
These four walls and nobody there…

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I sit in the dark for hours,
Thinkin’ ‘bout life while I watch the shower.
Tryna figure out where my peace went,
How I became everybody’s strength.
Phone full of numbers I can’t even call,
Everybody love you ‘til you start to fall.
I gave my heart, I gave my all,
Now it’s just me inside these walls.
Even when the music loud, I still hear pain,
Memories runnin’ circles in my brain.
Tryna heal while I’m hidin’ scars,
Just me and God inside these bars.
(Background)
“inside these wallsss…”
“me and God…”
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
And these four walls keep closin’ in…
Every night feel the same again…
I keep askin’ myself how long…
Can I carry this weight alone?

[Chorus – Bigger Harmonies]

These four walls…
Know everything about me…
These four walls…

[Bridge – spoken / emotional]
I ain’t scared of bein’ alone…
I’m scared of feelin’ invisible.
(pause)
Crazy part is…
People think the strong ones don’t break.

“don’t breakkk…”
