(Riff 2)

(Riff 1)x2

(Riff 2)
Cause I know that time has numbered my days
And I'll go along with everything you say

(Riff 1)x2

(Riff 2)
But I'll ride home laughing, look at me now
?The walls of my town, they come crumbling down

(Riff 1)x2

(Riff 2)
And my ears hear the call of my unborn sons?
And I know their choices colour all I've done

(Riff 1)x2

(Riff 2)
But I'll explain it all to the watchman's son
I ain't ever lived a year better spent in love

(Riff 1)x2

(Riff 3)
'Cause I'll know my weakness, know my voice
And I'll believe in grace and choice
And I know perhaps my heart is farce
But I'll be born without a mask
Woo!

(Riff 1)x2

(Riff 2)
Like the city that nurtured my greed and my pride
I stretched my arms into the sky

(Riff 1)x2

(Riff 2)
I cry Babel! Babel! Look at me now
Then the walls of my town, they come crumbling down

(Riff 1)x2

(Riff 2)
You ask where will we stand in the winds that will howl
As all we see will slip into the cloud

(Riff 1)x2

(Riff 2)
So come down from your mountain and stand where we've been
You know our breath is weak and our body thin

(Riff 1)x2

(Riff 4)
Press my nose up, to the glass around your heart
I should've known I was weaker from the start
You'll build your walls and I will play my bloody part
(Riff 5)
To tear, tear them down
Well I'm gonna tear, tear them down

(Riff 3)
'Cause I know my weakness, know my voice
And I'll believe in grace and choice
And I know perhaps my heart is farce
But I'll be born without a mask

(Riff 1)x4
