I can see you in the distance
And you're heading for a fall
Sinking deeper by the minute
You're about to lose it all

You better change
Before the sun goes down
You better leave
Before you are the last in town.
You better raise
Your fortresses or tear them down

Tear them down.
Tear them down.
There's an angel on your shoulder
And a devil at your feet
And that door you see before you
Could be poison tasting sweet.
You better change
Before the sun goes down
You better leave
Before you are the last in town.
You better raise
Your fortresses or tear them down

Tear them down.
Tear them down.
I can see you in the distance
And you're heading for a fall
Sinking deeper by the minute
You're about to lose it all

You better change
Before the sun goes down
You better leave
Before you are the last in town.
You better raise
Your fortresses or tear them down

Tear them down.
You gotta tear them down.
Tear them down.
You better tear them down.
Tear them down!
