Lyrics:
Screams and chills fill the air as night time falls
No one knows what goes on behind these battered walls
This is the place he calls his home, he wishes it were not so
He wants to run away, he only wants to go
His mother's hooked on the bottle
And his father's never home
He wants to hide away
So the beatings would be gone
In these battered walls
There lies a wounded child
If these walls could speak
Their stories would drive you wild
In these battered walls
In these battered walls
He closes his eyes and hopes the pain will go away
God bless him with the strength to face another day
His mother's hooked on the bottle
And his father's never home
He wants to hide away
So the beatings would be gone
In these battered walls
There lies a wounded child
If these walls could speak
Their stories would drive you wild
In these battered walls
In these battered walls
