Lyrics

[Verse 1] My mama told me when I was younger "You better speak up, don't be a number My daddy told me when there was thunder "Go be the lightnin', don't run for cover" [Pre-Chorus] Who's gonna help the helpless? Sometimes we're all alone These days we're all just lookin' for a place that we call home [Chorus] Now, we can't climb over and you can't go 'round (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Build them up, we'll tear them down Brick by brick, gonna watch them fall (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Build more bridges and tear down walls These walls Are the mountains that we climb These walls Are the great divide Brick by brick, gonna watch them fall (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Build more bridges, tear down walls [Verse 2] The space between us is gettin' wider We need the spark to light the fire Show me the promise, give me some feelin' There's too much hurtin', we need some healin' [Pre-Chorus] Who's gonna help the helpless? Sometimes we're all alone These days we're one step closer to that place that we call home [Chorus] Now, we can't climb over and you can't go 'round (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Build them up, we'll tear them down Brick by brick, gonna watch them fall (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Build more bridges and tear down walls These walls Are the mountains that we climb These walls Are the great divide Brick by brick, gonna watch them fall (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Build more bridges, tear down (These walls) walls [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] I remember when the world was smaller And we both felt ten feet taller [Chorus] Now, we can't climb over and you can't go 'round (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Build them up, we'll tear them down Brick by brick, gonna watch them fall (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Build more bridges and tear down walls These walls Are the mountains that we climb These walls Are the great divide Brick by brick, gonna watch them fall (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Build more bridges, tear down (These walls) walls [Outro] (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (These walls) (Oh-oh-oh) (These walls) (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (These walls) (Oh-oh-oh) Tear down (These walls) walls (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (These walls) (Oh-oh-oh) (These walls) (Woah-oh, oh-oh) (These walls) (Oh-oh) Tear down walls
