These Walls is a song by American singer-songwriter Teddy Geiger, released in 2017. It serves as the lead single from Geiger's debut studio album under their new name, The Therapy Sessions. The song's lyrics deal with themes of self-discovery, identity, and coming to terms with one's sexuality. It's noted for its vulnerable and emotionally resonant lyrics and Geiger's signature intimate vocal style. The song's production features a stripped-down, acoustic sound, focusing on Geiger's vocals and a minimal instrumentation.

Following the song's release, Geiger embarked on a promotional tour that solidified their position as a significant artist in the LGBTQ+ music community. The song's impact extended beyond its musical merit, playing a role in broader conversations around gender identity and self-expression.
