Ez egy Serj Tankian dal szövege. Majd szeretnék még írni róla, de most nincs időm lefordítani - annyira nem tudok angolul, csak nagyjából értem -. Ami viszont külön érdekesség, hogy amikor a dal szövegét kerestem a neten, találtam egy olyan oldalt, ahol a felhasználók írnak arról, hogy szerintük miről szól a szám. Az egyik bejegyző szerint az iszlám elleni érzések inspirálták a szerzőt, és az iszlám elleni érzelmeit fejezi ki. Erre született a következő bejegyzés, amit szintén ideollóztam. Egyben biztos vagyok, hogy nem az iszlámot támadja ez a dal, hanem mint a legtöbb Serj Tankian szerzemény (System of a Down) háborúellenes. Szóval folyt. köv. Most még egy kis tanulgatásba muszáj belelerőltetnem magam.
Empty walls
Your empty walls...
Your empty walls...
Pretentious attention
Dismissive aprehension
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?
Desolate and full of yearning
Dying of anticipation
Choking from intoxication
I want you
To be
Left behind those empty walls
Taunt you
to see
From behind those empty walls
Those 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 from intoxication
Don't you see their bodies burning?
Desolate and full of yearning
Dying of anticipation
Choking from intoxication
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
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
yesterday, before
you killed my family
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?
Desolate and full of yearning
Dying of anticipation
Choking from intoxication
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
Taunt you
To see
From behind those empty walls
From behind those empty walls
From behind those empty walls
From behind those empty walls
Those walls...
Those walls...

This song is talking about a thing that seems to be a chain reaction, 9/11 at the start of the Video we see a plane crashing into two towers symbolizing 9/11. The walls mean Coffins, he taught you, the government of USA/UK, to see from behind them, the coffins. when it says " we decline" it means people dying from wars, make the human race significantly "decline". He also says if they/ the government, saw from behind those empty walls they wouldnt waste their time "on coffins today." as they would experience war and death. "I love you yesterday, before you killed my family" ultimatly means that he/she loved the government, the country and is very patriotic, but when they kill his/her family its complete opposite, this is an outcome of war. The bodies that are burning, are from war it may be literal as in the victims of war or starvation how their body burns from starvation. Serj says that he wanted to interpret death and war through something innocent like children.
