When The Walls Close In

When The Walls Close In

When the walls are closing in on you

There's only one thing that you can do

Get out, get out, get out of that place

Quit climbing those walls, put a smile on your face

There's nothing as great as some socializing

It especially good for the soul, which isn't surprising

Maybe have a cup of coffee with some of your friends

Gather around in the lobby, the list never ends

Just go anywhere where people can be found

You'll feel so much better with your feet off the ground

Inside and alone can make you insane

Being closed in is just too much to contain

Some fresh air is the best that can be

Or take in the beauty of a beautiful tree

Down by the water, there's always someone there

Out on the island, there's so much if you're aware

Just to take a little trip close by

Can help to make you a little more high

Don't let the walls close in on you

You know exactly what you should do

When the walls close in on you, get out.

Go for a walk down the stairs just out

in back or front, or to the store, or by

the water, or to have some coffee, or to

the lobby. Just getting out for a short

while helps you in a big way.
