"The Walls Came Down" lyrics

"The Walls Came Down"
(originally by The Call)

Well they blew the horns
And the walls came down
They'd all been warned
Still the walls came down
They stood there laughing
They're not laughing anymore
As the walls came down

When sanctuary fades
You see nations flipped
All those night time raids
The congregation splits
There's a song of assassins
It's ringing in your ears
We got dumb heads thinking
Playing on fears

The walls came down
And the walls came down
The walls came down
And the walls came down

Yeah they blew the horns
And the walls came down
They'd all been warned
But the walls came down
I don't think there's any Russians
And there ain't no Yanks
Only corporate criminals
Playing around with tanks

The walls came down
The walls came down
They stood there laughing
And the walls came down
The walls came down
