Song lyrics
Your empty walls 
Your empty walls 
Pretentious attention 
Dismissive apprehension 
Don't waste your time 
On coffins today 
When we decline 
From the confines of our mind 
Don't waste your time 
On coffins today 

Don't you see their bodies burning 
Desolate and full of yearning 
Dying of anticipation 
Choking from intoxication 
Don't you see their bodies burning 
Desolate and full of yearning 
Dying of anticipation 
Choking from intoxication 

I want you to be left behind those empty walls 
Taught you to see from behind those empty walls 

Those empty walls 
When we decline 
From the confines of our mind 
Don't waste your time 
On coffins today 

Don't you see their bodies burning 
Desolate and full of yearning 
Dying of anticipation 
Choking from intoxication 
Don't you see their bodies burning 
Desolate and full of yearning 
Dying of anticipation 
Choking from intoxication 

I want you to be left behind those empty walls 
Taught you to see from behind those empty walls 

Want you to be left behind those empty walls 
I taught you to see from behind those empty walls 

From behind those empty walls 
From behind those empty walls 
The walls 
From behind those empty walls 

I loved you yesterday 
Before you killed my family 

Don't you see their bodies burning 
Desolate and full of yearning 
Dying of anticipation 
Choking from intoxication 
Don't you see their bodies burning 
Desolate and full of yearning 
Dying of anticipation 
Choking from intoxication 

I want you to be left behind those empty walls 
Taught you to see from behind those empty walls 

I want you to be left behind those empty walls 
I taught you to see from behind those empty walls 

From behind those empty walls 
From behind those fucking walls 
From behind those god damn walls 
Those walls 
Those walls

The song is amazing. the rythm melody and voclas are phenomonal.

I still here no awesome solos though. and it would have been a higher rank if the lyrics in the verses weren't the same. other than that it's great. love it

He is the lead singer of System Of A Down.

Love this song. Not too fond of the rest of the album though. This song still reminds me of SOAD which I definitely prefer over his solo project.

everything about the song is great!!! I am addicted to it however just a personal opinion it sounds as though he is saying....


I want you to be left behind those empty walls,
"taunt" you to see behind from behind those empty walls.

Serj is awesome!!! This song is amazing its so powerful. Wat I get from these lyrics is not that hes against america hes just flat out telling everyone that we as people are all corrupted and were brought up in a hateful nation. We are taught to stay behing these empty walls and watch our lives go to waist. We kill each other and ourselves. Wats the point of coffins? I think serj has great lyrics. Hes the best!!![picture=]
