When the walls fall down on your old town, then you begin |
|
See, I had these walls built up so strong |
|
Built when I was young in wars I'd won |
|
Fortified alone, stone upon stone |
|
So tall I could not see beyond my wall |
|
But our walls fall down, and all walls fall down |
|
And when walls come down on your old town |
|
Then you begin |
|
A bit unassured, a bit insecure |
|
I climbed up and I saw the world I lacked |
|
And my first stone cracked, foundations collapsed |
|
Standing on the ground in stone I'd found |
|
That our walls fall down, and all walls fall down |
|
And when walls come down on your old town |
|
You begin |
|
Governor of the land from where you stand |
|
'neath a shelter built by many hands |
|
There is a storm, and you've locked the door |
|
On people you once were, you came for war |
|
And your walls fall down |
|
Walls fall down |
|
Walls fall down |
|
Like a stone comes down |
|
And I'm no stone |
|
I'm just no stone |
|
Says he's a stone |
|
No man's a stone |
