[Verse 1]

Some days we get a thrill in our brains

Some days it turns into malaise

You see your face in the veneer

Reflected on the surface of fear

Because we know we're never better than that

Some days were worse than you can imagine

And how I'm supposed to live with that?

With all these trainwrecks coming at random

[Chorus]

Hey, what are you gonna do

When those walls are falling down?

Falling down on you

Hey, what are you going to do

When those walls are falling down?

Falling down on you

[Verse 2]

You got warheads stacked in the kitchen

You treat distraction like it's a religion

With a rattlesnake step in your rhythm

We do the best with the souls we've been given

Because you know we're nothing special to them

We're going some place they've already been

Tryin' to make sense of what they call wisdom

And this riff-raff ain't laughing with them

[Chorus]

Hey, what are you gonna do

When those walls are falling down?

Falling down on you

Hey, what are you going to do

When those walls are falling down?

Falling down on you

[Verse 3]

You're wearin' all of the years on your face

You have a tombstone you mourn in the place

And your heart only speaks in a murmur

But your words ringin' out just like murder
