lyrics

You put up that wall, we'll tear it down

Divide and rule's been round for millennia
That shit's getting tired man I'm tellin' ya
Give people any enemy to scare them
Then tell em you're the one that'll save them

Build a wall, stoke fears and shit em up
Tell em stories anything to wind em up
Whip up, whip up prejudice
Whip, whip up the fear

You put up that wall, we'll tear it down

I can't believe the stuff that you're feeding us
There's only one place all this shit is leading us
World War 3, oblivion, a dead earth
A testament to putting petty profits first

You build walls to build fear and build up hate
Don't think too hard, just manipulate
But your... time is running out
Yes you're... facing oblivion

You put up that wall, we'll tear it down
