Tear down the walls forever
We build these walls together
Tear down the walls forever
It would be justice to let them fall
Finger on the trigger
Dying for technology
Bigger ammunition, ooh
Building perfect war machines
You wanna be free in a physical world
That soon may not be here at all
Tear down the walls forever
We build these walls together
Tear down the walls forever
It would be justice to let them fall
Take a hundred monkeys, yeah
Living for biology
Crying in their cages, ooh
Turn it off so you don't see
You think you can fight an invisible foe
If you killed them, just how would you know?
Tear down the walls forever
We build these walls together
Tear down the walls forever
It would be justice to let them fall, hey
You wanna be free in a physical world
That soon may not be here at all
Tear down the walls forever
We build these walls together
Tear down the walls forever
It would be justice to let them fall
Tear down the walls forever
(Tear down the boundaries between us)
We build these walls together
(Build up the bridges that lead us)
Tear down the walls forever
It would be justice to let them fall
Tear down the walls forever
We build these walls together
Tear down the walls forever
We are the ones to tear down the walls
Tear down the walls forever
(There must be peace without victory)
We build these walls together
(Only then will we be united)
Tear down the walls forever
We build these walls together
Tear down the walls forever
It would be justice to let them fall
Finger on the trigger
Dying for technology
Bigger ammunition, ooh
Building perfect war machines
You wanna be free in a physical world
That soon may not be here at all
Tear down the walls forever
We build these walls together
Tear down the walls forever
It would be justice to let them fall
Take a hundred monkeys, yeah
Living for biology
Crying in their cages, ooh
Turn it off so you don't see
You think you can fight an invisible foe
If you killed them, just how would you know?
Tear down the walls forever
We build these walls together
Tear down the walls forever
It would be justice to let them fall, hey
You wanna be free in a physical world
That soon may not be here at all
Tear down the walls forever
We build these walls together
Tear down the walls forever
It would be justice to let them fall
Tear down the walls forever
(Tear down the boundaries between us)
We build these walls together
(Build up the bridges that lead us)
Tear down the walls forever
It would be justice to let them fall
Tear down the walls forever
We build these walls together
Tear down the walls forever
We are the ones to tear down the walls
Tear down the walls forever
(There must be peace without victory)
We build these walls together
(Only then will we be united)
Tear down the walls forever
