These Halls - Enemy You

Adam speaks and nobody listens

He’s so depressed but no one sees him

Cindy copes, Yeah she seems okay

All the drugs get her through the day

Steven counts things over and over

And he’s unable to get it together

Jane’s so quiet, she did not fuel

She asked for all the ridicule

These halls leave us with scars

These halls determine who we are

No place for the sad or alone

It’s where we learn

And where we grow

Theses halls leave us with scars

These halls determine who we are

Youth is short and youth so cold

So many stories never told

Jean is the center of all attention

The things at home, to them,

She cannot mention

Richard lost his every last hope

They found there,

Hanging by a rope

These halls leave us with scars

These halls determine who we are

No place for the sad or alone

It’s where we learn

And where we grow

Theses halls leave us with scars

These halls determine who we are

Youth is short and youth so cold

So many stories never told

Bred for a life of competition

Led by our peers with no suspicion

Where we’re taught to keep in time

To take a number and get back in line

And throw all our individuality away

These halls leave us with scars

These halls determine who we are

No place for the sad or alone

It’s where we learn

And where we grow

Theses halls leave us with scars

These halls determine who we are

Youth is short and youth so cold

So many stories never told

Never told
