Something missing, left behind
Search in circles everytime I try
I've been here before
I've seen you before

I can't escape walking down these halls
Hard to find a place where there are no walls
And no lines begging me to cross
Only straight ahead, better move along

Like clockwork, I commit the crime
I pretend to be everything they like
I've been here before
I've seen you before

I can't escape walking down these halls
Hard to find a place where there are no walls
And no lines begging me to cross
Only straight ahead, better move along

And I trade everything for this
And I trade everything for this
Why do I read the writing on the wall?
Why do I read the writing on the wall?

I don't wanna lose my place in line
I've been here too long
And I've spent too much time
I don't wanna lose my place in line
I've been here too long
And I've spent too much time

Something missing, left behind
Search in circles everytime I try
I've been here before
I've seen you before

I can't escape walking down these halls
Hard to find a place where there are no walls
And no lines begging me to cross
Only straight ahead, better move along

And I trade everything for this
And I trade everything for this
Why do I read the writing on the wall?
Why do I read the writing on the wall?
Why do I read the writing on the wall?
Why do I read the writing on the wall?
