Cos 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
Through the walls of my town
they come crumbling down
And my ears hear the call of my unborn sons
And I know that choices colour all I've done
But I'll explain it all to the watchman's son
I ain't never lived a year better spent in Love
Cos I'll know my weakness, know my voice
And I'll believe in grace and choice
And I know perhaps my heart is fast
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
Through the walls of my town
The come crumbling down
You ask where will we stand
in the winds that will have
as all we see will slip into the cloud
So come down from your mountain and stand where we been
You know our breath is weak and our body thin
Press my nose up to the glass
around your heart
I shoul'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
Cos I'll know my weakness, know my voice
And I'll believe in grace and choice
And I know perhaps my heart is fast
But I'll be born without a mask
