If houses tell stories 
I wonder 
About these walls of yours and mine 
They could repeat any number 
Of things 
They've heard and seen in their time 

All of the angry words spoken 
Then the silence that follows for days 
All that leaves a home feeling broken 
Lord, if these walls could talk they'd pray 

If love lived here you couldn't tell 
Five thousand square feet of living hell 
And two hearts that need to be saved 
It all died here from pure neglect 
Is it too dead to resurrect 
Lord, if these walls could talk they'd pray 

Two little hands folded tight by her bedside 
Asking Jesus will my family be ok 
A child of five is just too small 
Her prayers alone can't save us all 
Lord, if these walls could talk they'd pray 

Lord, if these walls could talk they'd pray
