Ed O’Brien
Climbing Up the Walls
[Verse 1]
I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement
But if you get too far inside
You'll only see my reflection
[Verse 2]
It's always best with the covers up
I am the pick in the ice
Do not cry out or hit the alarm
You know we're friends till we die
[Chorus]
And either way you turn, I'll be there
Open up your skull, I'll be there
Climbing up the walls
[Verse 3]
It's always best when the light is off
It's always better on the outside
Fifteen blows to the back of your head
Fifteen blows to your mind
[Verse 4]
So lock the kids up safe tonight
Shut the eyes in the cupboard
I've got the smell of a local man
Who's got the loneliest feeling
[Chorus]
And either way he turns, I'll be there
Open up your skull, I'll be there
Climbing up the walls
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls
