“These lyrics are derived from Jason’s notes; basically an introspective view describing divorce. I had to get into an unenviable headspace and imagine what it must be like to experience that kind of frustration.” ~ Jono
“When the Walls Go Up”
Music by The Living Fields
Lyrics by Jon Higgs
How did it ever come to this?
What once were the softest lips
...now bear teeth
When the talking stops
...the signal drops
breathing constricts
then the lines are down
When the walls go up
Last neglect, the point of no return
Feel inept as all the signs were there
...like a slow stabbing sword
When the talking stops
...the signal drops
breathing constricts
then the lines are down
When the walls go up
Do not want to erase fond memories in venom
