Walls
Embracing Freedom Within Walls: Gabriel Bendel's Captivating Journey
Lyrics
Within these walls
Refers to the confinement or space where the narrator resides.
How long it's been I can't recall
The duration of time spent within these walls is unknown or forgotten by the narrator.
Someone I trust said nothing matters
Someone the narrator trusts has expressed that nothing beyond these walls holds significance.
Outside these walls, no you're safe just where you are
Assurance that safety exists inside these walls, contrasting the unknown dangers outside.
In this room
Specifically denotes the current physical location or space within the walls.
In this bare and lonesome room
Describes the room as empty and desolate, emphasizing isolation.
I've been taught not to listen
Refers to a learned behavior of ignoring external disturbances or outside influence.
Not to hear, When someone bangs on the door
Advised not to acknowledge or respond when someone attempts to enter.
All I know comes from here
The only source of the narrator's knowledge and experiences is derived from this enclosed space.
All I see and all I hold dear
All that holds value and is cherished by the narrator exists within these walls.
I'm encircled, I'm surrounded
Feeling trapped or restricted by the surrounding environment.
I'm a prisoner, but I think I like it
The narrator feels captive but expresses a sense of contentment or acceptance within this imprisonment.
Drag my arms and pull my clothes and make me walk out cause
Resisting any attempt to be removed from this confined space.
I won't ever leave this place in which I'm locked up
Declares an adamant refusal to leave this place of confinement.
No matter what you say to me, how hard you knock on the door
Asserts a commitment to staying shut off from the outside despite attempts to persuade.
I'll never open,
Firm stance on refusing to grant access or open up to the external world.
Cause I was raised within these walls
Indicates upbringing and entire existence within these enclosed boundaries.
A noble cause
Highlights a perceived noble purpose or value connected to life inside these walls.
Seems way too distant
A noble cause seems unattainable or far removed from the narrator's enclosed reality.
From within these walls
Emphasizes the confinement and how it limits focus to internal matters.
I have to focus on what matters
Stresses the necessity of concentrating solely on oneself within this confined space.
Which is Me, Myself and I
Indicates a self-centered mindset due to the seclusion experienced.
Cause all my life
Expresses a life shielded from suffering or difficulties within these walls.
I've been spared from pain and strife
The comfort and lack of hardship within these walls are foundational to the narrator's life.
And this beautiful illusion would surely shatter
Awareness that leaving this comfortable and sheltered environment could destroy this idyllic perception.
If I left my ivory tower
Leaving the enclosed space would disrupt the illusion of safety and perfection.
All I know comes from here
Reiterates that all the narrator comprehends stems from this confined environment.
All I see and all I hold dear
All the narrator values and observes is contained within these walls.
I'm encircled, I'm surrounded
Reiteration of feeling surrounded and restricted by the enclosed space.
I'm a prisoner, but I think I like it
Despite feeling captive, the narrator feels a sense of affinity or comfort within these walls.
Drag my arms and pull my clothes and make me walk out cause
Resists any external attempts to force departure from this confined space.
I won't ever leave this place in which I'm locked up
Expresses unwavering determination to remain within these walls despite external pressures.
No matter what you say to me, how hard you knock on the door
Reaffirms the commitment to not open the door or engage with the outside world.
I'll never open,
Reiterates the upbringing and lifelong entrapment within these walls.
Cause I was raised within these walls
Repeated emphasis on the confined space as the narrator's abode, a place of safety and belonging.
Within these walls
-Within these walls
-Within these walls
-Within these walls
-This is my home
Repeatedly reinforces the idea that within these walls is the narrator's safe haven where no harm can reach.
Where I belong
-No one can hurt me
-No one can hurt me
-This is my home
-Where I belong
Reiterates the safety and invulnerability felt within this confined space.
No one can, no one can hurt me no
-This is my home, where I belong
-Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Continued reaffirmation that within these walls is where the narrator feels a sense of belonging and safety.
This is my home
-Where I belong
-Where I belong
-This is my home
-Where I belong
