I turn away
There's nothing to see here
Only a distant memory
Of how things really were
Supposed to be

And life moves on
Ever so quickly
I see my past it flashes by
Like the stars in the sky flickering

And the years come around
Years come around
I'm left here praying
That the tears falling down
Tears falling down
Are worth me saving
And I don't know how to go on

Tear down the walls of your life
You can't stop them anymore
Tear down the walls of your life
And find your way

How long
Can this life carry on?
How long
Watch the walls
Watch them burning down
How long
How long must we run?

I lost my way
When I was younger
I regret lots of things I did
Just maybe I didn't give quite enough

And the years turn around
Years turn around
Their faces fading
And the years going by
Years going by
There's no replacing
And the souls will all carry on

Tear down the walls of your life
You can't stop them anymore
Tear down the walls of your life
And find your way

How long
Can this life carry on?
How long
Watch the walls
Watch them burning down
How long
How long must we run?

Tear down the walls

How long
Can this life carry on?
How long
Watch the walls
Watch them burning down
How long
How long must we run?
