Вступление
[Verse 1]D
I heard a sound outside today, a thousand voices all the same
G
that cried in vane but can't explain the reasons why they all complain.
D
We live among the plastic people, population plain and simple,
G
turning with a curve, shutting out the windows of the
BmF#m
world I find so incomplete, where every chess piece that I meet
GA
will set the record on repeat and matter not at all.
DGDG
So, save the fables I've been told, I'm headed for the open road,
DAD
and going where they're tearing down the walls.
[Verse 2]D
All along the wind was talking, passed aside a sobbing nothing,
G
with his heart taped on his sleeve. Says he has the things I need.
D
Bad disguise but good advice, he said think twice next time you swipe
G
a woman off her feet. She may just fall flat on her face
Bm
all painted white, not quite alright.
F#m
There's more than life than that one night
GA
when Cindarella left you at the ball.
DG
So, here's a lesson in confession,
DG
maybe I just need attention.
DAD
Take me where they're tearing down the walls.
[Verse 3]D
Where the armies can't surrender, writing up their final stanza,
G
sixth chief commander with a hidden agenda.
D
In the backward image of a prince who rained on high and ignorance
G
while pushing doomsday buttons making puppets out of husbands
BmF#m
He said the glass may be half empty and these days i'm always thirsty.
GA
Oxygen's a taste I can't recall.
DGDG
While dodging every sidewalk crack, I gave him my reflection back
DA
to take him where they're tearing down the walls.
[Verse 4]D
Far away where moonlight curls, there danced a ruby peasant girl
G
who had a passive style, with a Mona Lisa smile.
D
And that Sunday skirt she liked to wear that made the preacher stop and stare
G
it sure confused her brother and her father never loved her.
BmF#m
She turned to me while i played dumb and kissed me with a poison tongue.
GA
She melted as my innocence dissolved.
DGDG
I'm sorry, but I've got to go. The thrill of young loves getting old.
DAD
You'll find out when we're tearing down the walls.
[Verse 5]D
The nylon mats beneath the floor that led me to the castle door
G
made up of thorns and briers where the wasted time expires
D
in a thrown room taken from a dream, they executed kings and queens
G
for changing all their minds and filling up the caskets with their
BmF#m
crimes against humanity. They begged for me to set them free.
GA
I handed them a guillotine that whistles when it falls.
DG
I thanked them with my phony eyes.
DG
I bluffed my hands and said goodbye
DAD
and headed where they're tearing down the walls.
[Verse 6]D
When the hours meet the minutes, seconds til I finally finish,
G
traveling and tracing when I reached my destination.
D
There were figures standing by the gate. I realized I'd arrived too late,
G
they waited for me as I screamed. The prince, the peasant, king and queen.
BmF#m
and then of course the sobbing nothing, manifesting into something.
GA
Thus destroying everything that could have been resolved.
DG
The seasons changed, the wind got colder.
DG
But I said, to starting over.
DAD
Than I said, to tearing down the walls.
[Coda]DG
So if you want to see some progress,
DG
kindly disreguard your logic.
DAD
Take me where they're tearing down the walls.
GAD
Take me where they're tearing down the walls.
