Four Walls (The Ballad of Perry Smith)
Bastille

[Verse 1]

These four walls to keep you

One floor to sleep upon and only

These four walls to keep you

These four walls contain you

Supposed to save you from yourself and

These four walls in

[Pre-Chorus]

And now we're faced with two wrongs

Now we're faced with two wrongs

I don't know, oh, I don't know

Now we're faced with two wrongs

Now we're faced with two wrongs

I don't know, oh, I don't know[Chorus]

We could be born to anything and now what, now what?

What you have done is terrible...

And now you, and now you

Now you carry it with you

You carry it with you

You carry it with you

[Verse 2]

These four walls will keep you

Until you face the rope

You've only these four walls before they,

[Pre-Chorus]

And now we're faced with two wrongs

Now we're faced with two wrongs

I don't know, oh, I don't know

Now we're faced with two wrongs

Now we're faced with two wrongs

I don't know, oh, I don't know

[Chorus]

We could be born to anything and now what, now what?

What you have done is terrible...

And now you, and now you

Now you carry it with you

You carry it with you

You carry it with you

(Now you carry it with you

Carry it with you

Carry it with you)

[Bridge]

There's no view from here, no view from here, no view from here

All you see's the sky

Clouds passing by, clouds passing by

[Chorus]

We could be born to anything and now what, now what?

What you have done is terrible...

And now, and now

Now you carry it with you

You carry it with you

You carry it with you

Now you carry it with you

You carry it with you

You carry it with you

Now you carry it with you

You carry it with you

You carry it with you
