Tear down the walls
Tear down the walls

I'm so bored out of my head
Well, they haven't heard a single word that I said
The music's loud and I'm feeling wound
Drinking down my sorrows, yeah, I might as well drown
Everything I do is wrong, that's what they tell me
Everything I say is wrong, I'll lock it inside
Everything I feel is wrong, well, how can they know that
The three ways I see it: Right, the wrong, and then mine

Tear down the walls
Tear down the walls
Brick by brick, gotta get my last kicks
Gonna tear down the walls

I don't need you coming down on me
Don't need you telling me what I need
Learn your lesson, screaming thru the halls
No suppressions gonna reason at all
Gotta face another day under restrictions
Gotta face another year in this prison cell
Gotta face a mother's fear, father's conditions
I've had enough of buying what you sell

Tear down the walls
Tear down the walls
Brick by brick, gotta get my last kicks
Gotta tear down the walls

You better face it
'Cause we're the strong
Now I can taste it
It's you that's wrong

Tear down the walls
Tear down the walls
Brick by brick, gotta get my last kicks
Gotta tear down the walls

Tear down the walls
(Gonna get my last kicks)
Tear down the walls
(Like a-running my...)
Brick by brick, gotta get my last kicks
Gonna tear down the walls
