Weâre slowly twitching to the fire that burns but plays dead
Stand aside and watch us burn
Break down the walls weâve made
Oh! Break! Down the walls weâve made
Break!
Donât say anything cause anything could burn the flame out cold
The screaming voices in your head, just silent sounds ignored
And Iâm telling you that this will be the last time
And Iâll wash my hands of this
We built these walls
We built them for protection
Just to crumble to my feet
We built these walls
We built them for protection
In the end Iâll be the one whoâs killing me
Itâs killing me! Itâs killing me! Itâs killing me!
Forget about that fire we lit, unmask that lifeless face
Weâve cooked and burned from limb to limb
Trapped in this iron cage
A game for the fallen
A song for the sullen
Stand aside and watch us burn
Break all the walls weâve made
Oh! Break! Down the walls weâve made
Break down
