Serj Tankian - Empty Walls (Acoustic) Lyrics






Pretentious Attention
Dismissive Apprehension
Don't waste your time on coffins today.
When we decline from the confines of our mind
Don't waste your time on coffins today

Don't you see their bodies burning
Desolate and full of yearning
Dying of anticipation
Choking from intoxication
Don't you see their bodies burning

I want you
to be
left behind those empty walls
Taunt you
to see
from behind those empty walls

Your empty walls
Your empty walls

When we decline from the confines of our mind
Don't waste your time on coffins today

Don't you see their bodies burning
Desolate and full of yearning
Dying of anticipation
Choking on intoxication
Don't you see their bodies burning

I want you
to be
left behind those empty walls
Taunt you
to see
from behind those empty walls
Want you
to be
left behind those empty walls
I taunt you
to see
from behind those empty walls

From behind those empty walls
From behind those empty walls
The walls
From behind those empty walls

I loved you
(From behind those empty walls)
yesterday before
(From behind those empty walls)
you killed my family
(The walls)

Don't you see their bodies burning
Don't you see their bodies burning

I want you
to be
left behind those empty walls
Taunt you
to see
from behind those empty walls
Want you
to be
left behind those empty walls
I taunt you
to see
from behind those empty walls

From behind those empty walls
From behind those empty walls
From behind those fucking walls
From behind those goddamn walls
Those walls
Those walls

    What about them? Serj is from Lebanon, you know... (and he has Armenian parents) Or do you mean the lyrics? In that case, yes, agreed (sadly enough).

  19. R.... M....

    the picture I am Borat!

    R.... M....

    He’s better looking than Sasha Baron Cohen. Sorry not sorry

  20. A.... S....

    I like this version better than the original

    A.... S....

    I halfway agree. Its all a matter of opinion, but I listen to this one more, maybe because it's not so overproduced.

  21. A.... G....

    Serj is a fantastic singer! Can't believe he's finally coming to Lithuania

  22. p.... e....

    Nadie mejor que Serj

  23. z.... ....

    Liked him better in soad

  24. P.... M....

    He's got such a good face...

  25. V.... ....

    I don't know why this made me so very very happy.

  26. C.... S....

    i am completely convinced at this point that there is a possibility Serj Tankian is the closest thing we have to a modern day Jesus based of his voice

  27. f.... ....

    Serj is THE BEST singer I have ever heard

    f.... ....

    flof05 his father is better, where do you think he learned it from? search this song "bari arakee" or just serj singing with his father.

  28. D.... ....

    @Rohi727 Maybe he was a good singer... Now he just knows how to use a kind of voice... So boring.

  29. U.... ....

    he's a fucking god..." You don't see their bodies burning" !

  30. D.... ....

    @Ouclypse Maybe Chester is almost as good as him.

  31. E.... M....

    @digiterik Lol, you're right.

  32. J.... C....

    2 people dont see that that body is burning

  33. C.... S....

    Serj is just fucking epic. his name is epic, his music (both solo and SOAD)is epic, and his vocals are epic.

  34. s.... ....

    GO MOSES!
    GO SERJ!

  35. F.... ....

    That's amazing, it's really awesome.

  59. T.... ....

    yes you are absolutly right :)

  60. D.... ....

    most songs from SOAD/serj are, look at the lyrics of like Feed Us, Money, Unthinking Majority, Fuck the System , almost every single song.

  61. B.... M....

    he wass @ pukkelpop this year :D

  62. b.... ....

    Wow. I love the accoustic version. It highlights Serj's melodious voice. :)

  63. I.... M....

    im 75%!ur lucky you got to see him and you live in hungary.lucky.

  64. x.... ....

    I dont think so either, sometimes offending someone is the only way to be heard and/or get a point across. And if you really understand the meaning behind this song, then maybe you can see the need for the emphasizing the negativeness of the "Empty Walls".

  65. W.... o....

    I'm from Hungary, and Serj was here yesterday!

  66. W.... o....

    Serj is good, Darosn is good, Shavo is good, John is good, but soad was AMAZING, and soad will be amazing for ever. We all want them to back!

  67. R.... ....

    Different ... changed and i think changed for the better!! ...........but still this will never be SOAD !!! Don't U guyz want 'em back!!??

  68. a.... ....

    that was amasing!!!

  69. T.... C....

    No Mike Patton it's a lot better, Serj Tankian (and a lot more) copied Patton.

  70. J.... C....

    this almost better than the original

  71. T.... ....

    original sorry :P

  72. T.... ....

    I like this one better than the origional ^_^

  73. K.... ....

    if we had a whole bunch of Serjs then who would care about the first one? I think one of every kind is good enough.

  74. J.... R....

    I agree with you about serj tankien. He is one of the best song writers/singers in the world. His unique vocals go unmatched and I haven't heard better music from anyone other than serj or system of a down.

  75. H.... h....

    WTF it's purely amazing !

    The only album I liked from SOAD was toxicity which was a masterpiece.

    But this song... Impressive. I'm voiceless.

  76. V.... ....

    its a sad song in my opinion

  77. D.... H....

    serj is such a briliant musician. this version is amazing! i wish it was a bonus song on the album or something.

  78. D.... B....

    avaiveble

  79. M.... R....

    yeah but don't all we musicians?

    lol jk

  80. W.... ....

    Damn..this Acoustic version <3,Serj Tankian got such a unique voice <3

  81. U.... ....

    hell yeah. Serj is a genius.

  82. G.... N....

    He's just great !

  83. A.... ....

    HE IS A GOD!!!!!

  84. b.... ....

  88. L.... M....
