"Walls" lyrics

"Walls"

I took a walk on the other side
I had a conversation with the dead
It made new an old perspective, they said
'While you're alive you better live'
I looked into my daughter's eyes
She's only five and and all surprise
She showed me something different
We just laughed, I could have cried

Will we ever break down these walls?
Will we ever break down these walls?
There must be something beautiful
If not, what the hell are we fighting for?

Won't be the same me anymore (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)
I'll be a hundred million maybe more (Warlu, Warlu, in Yolngu)
Give me the rush of the limitless collective
Be like the air of everything, everyone, everywhere
And nothing at all

Will we ever break down these walls?
Will we ever break down these walls?
There must be something beautiful
If not, what the hell are we fighting for?

I knew that something was different
When you walked in through the door
I caught the drift of the dangerous
Like the cat catching the bird in it's cruel jaws

Will we ever break down these walls?
Will we ever break down these walls?
There must be something beautiful
If not, what the hell are we fighting for?

Will we ever break down these walls?
Will we ever break down these walls?
There must be something beautiful
If not, will we ever really see the stars?
