'Cause I know
that time has

numbered my days
and I'll go along with
everything you say
But I'll ride home laughing
look at me now
the walls of my town
they come
crumbling down
And my ears hear
the call of my unborn sons
and I know their choices
colour all I've done
But I'll explain it all
to the watchman's son
I never lived a year
better spent in love
'Cause I know
my weakness

know my voice
andl1lheHevein
grace and choice
And I know perhaps
my heart is farce

but I'll be born
without a mask
Like the city that nurtured
my greed and my pride

I stretch my arms
into the sky
I cry Babel! Babel!
Look at me now

then the walls of
my town they come
crumbling down
You ask where will
we stand in the winds

that will howl
as all we see will
slip into the cloud
So come down from
your mountain and
stand where we've been
you know our breath is
weak and our body thin
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
to tear
tear them down
Well I'm gonna tear

tear them down
'Cause I know
my weakness

know my voice
l1lheHevein
grace and choice
And I know perhaps
my heart is farce

I'll be born
without a mask
