I can hear through these walls 
I can hear it when they're foolin' around 
I can hear through these walls 
And I hear every sign, every sound 
I can hear through these walls 
In the dark with the shades pulled down 

Every word that they say 
Every move they make feels it's coming my way 

My favorite moment 
Putting the glass up next to the wall 
Imagination 
Tho' I see nothing, I hear it all 
Putting my sign up 
Do not disturb me, speak or shout, inside out 
Oh and my clothes, they're all laid out 

I can see through my windows 
I can see the girls and the boys 
I can see through my windows 
And I can imagine the noise 
I can see through my windows 
I can see them playing with toys 

Oh, I hope it won't end 
Ooh, if I promise not to touch, just be a friend 

Life is so lonely 
I don't get high off just being me 
I like pretending 
Wanting to touch them, wanting to see 
It's only normal 
Creeping behind you, now don't shout, 'cos it's alright 
They keep the windows locked and the door shut tight 

Oh I'm feeling like I'm locked in a cage 
No way in, no way out, and it gets so lonely 
Am I really asking a lot 
Just to reach out and touch somebody 
'Cause when I look through my windows or open my door 
I can feel it all around me 

And I can hear through these walls 
I can hear it when they're foolin' around 
I can hear through these walls 
I can hear every sight, every sound 
Ooh, I can hear through these walls 
In the dark with the shades pulled down 

And every word that they say 
Every move they make feels it's coming my way 

Ah yeah
Ah yeah
Ah yeah
Ah yeah
