We'Re Pounding On the Walls
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
Prepare to challenge every belief you've ever held
Just don't be surprised by how quickly they're felled
Everything you thought you knew was a ruse
To amuse those who would ignite the fuse
The skylines are ablaze with the flames of change
Yet beneath the turmoil is a tranquility so strange
Neighbors become brutal enemies bloodied by combat
As the arteries of the city falter combatants go splat
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
All of this bloodshed to weed out what is different
Another lost life becomes another soul spent
Ignorance gave way to gibberish and then blistering bickering
And while politicians are shivering society is withering
This is what happens when the few push the many
Because a single life is worth more than a penny
And that penny is what we set on the table
As if it will support our lives, it's such a fable
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
This is what happens when the few push the many
Because a single life is worth more than a penny
And that penny is what we set on the table
As if it will support our lives, it's such a fable
Prepare to challenge every belief you've ever held
Just don't be surprised by how quickly they're felled
Everything you thought you knew was a ruse
To amuse those who would ignite the fuse
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
