Four Pink Walls Lyrics - Alessia Cara

1 I grew up memorizing all the cracks in the wall

2 Staring up at the ceiling watching particles fall

3 See I prayed every day for a change to be made

4 And I'd wait to be saved, oh no

5 Up at night, hiding under covers found my escape

6 Shut my eyes and let the bass buzz into my brain

7 See I knew I was destined for bigger and better but never said a thing

8 I assumed there was only room for

9 My dreams in my dreams so I'd sleep and repeat 'til the moon went home

10 And I didn't know where it'd take me but made me so crazy in love with it

11 Then the universe aligned

12 With what I had in mind

13 Who knew there was a life

14 Behind those four pink walls?

15 Now I wake up to a different bedroom everyday

16 Living up in the clouds thinking of how it all changed

17 Used to sit and watch paint dry

18 Amazed by the limelight

19 I can't ever be afraid

20 I assumed there was only room for

21 My dreams in my dreams so I'd sleep and repeat 'til the moon went home

22 And I didn't know where it'd take me but made me so crazy in love with it

23 Then the universe aligned

24 Oh, with what I had in mind

25 Who knew there was a life behind those four pink walls?

26 Oh, the universe aligned

27 With what I wanted all this time

28 I knew there was a life

29 Behind those four pink walls

30 All of the days that I wasted gazing outside the window

31 Impatient frustrations let out into my pillow

32 Lied awake at night while my head wandered

33 And I wondered why

34 Things weren't different

35 Everything shifted overnight

36 Went from "when boredom strikes" to "Ms. Star on the Rise"

37 It was all in an instant man

38 But those four pink walls, now I kinda miss them man

39 Then the universe aligned

40 With what I wanted all this time

41 I knew there was a life

42 Behind those four pink walls
