Grey Walls

I took my darling down I took my darling down To that big grey house down the lane And then the doctor said He said it's in her head She's never going to be right again I kissed my love goodbye She didn't blink an eye They took her down the hall She never looked back at all CHORUS Behind grey walls Somewhere there's a soul Behind grey walls She's out of control Crying out for help No one can hear O Lord have pity on her O Lord have pity on her My darling walks the floor My darling walks the floor She walks every minute that she can I heard my darling say I heard my darling say She don't know who I am Cigarette burns down her arm Said she tried to do herself harm Tied her arms in the back Trussed her up like a sack CHORUS I saw my darling's face I saw my darling's face It looked so pale in the distance She stared out from her room Into the dying gloom And I saw her poor tears glisten Pills to keep her calm More punctures than a junkie in her arm Tied her down on the bed Seventy volts through her head CHORUS -------------------------------------------------
