  • You were out walking the park
    I was at the Owl Cafe
    When the sirens rang
    And no we're never gonna meet
    But I feel you anyway
    I was trying to get out of town
    You passed in an ambulance
    We was in a trance ?
    And now we're never gonna meet
    But I feel you anyway
    Yeah I feel you anyway

    Let them build a wall around us
    I don't care I'm gonna tear it down
    It's just bricks and ill intentions
    They don't stand a chance
    I'll tear it down

    Signals you send
    Secrets you would never tell
    People you've been
    People you bend to your will
    Darkness comes on
    And lingers past the dawn
    Tension it lends
    Tensions, tension, tension waiting

    Let them build a wall around us
    I don't care I'm gonna tear it down
    It's just bricks and ill intentions
    They don't stand a chance
    I'll tear it down

    I'll tear it down
    Na na na na
    Na na na na
    Na na na na I'll tear it down

    Na na na na
    Na na na na
    Na na na na I'll tear it down

    You were just getting off work
    I was down at the city stacks
    When the sky went black
    And now we're never gonna meet
    But I feel you anyway
    Yeah, I feel you today

    Let them build a wall
    I don't care I'm gonna tear it down
    It's just bricks and ill intentions
    They don't stand a chance
    I'll tear it down

    Hmm, tear it down Writer/s: Daniel Britt, Pergolizzi Laura
