I turn away

There's nothing to see here

Only a distant memory

Of how things really were 

Supposed to be 

And life moves on

Ever so quickly

I see my past it flashes by

Like the stars in the sky flickering 



And the years come around

Years come around

I'm left here praying

That the tears falling down 

Tears falling down

Are worth me saving

And I don't know how to go on 



Tear down the walls of your life

You can't stop them anymore

Tear down the walls of your life 

And find your way 



How long

Can this life carry on? 

How long

Watch the walls 

Watch them burning down 

How long 

How long must we run? 



I lost my way

When I was younger

I regret lots of things I did

Just maybe I didn't give quite enough 



And the years turn around

Years turn around

Their faces fading

And the years going by

Years going by 

There's no replacing

And the souls will all carry on 



Tear down the walls of your life

You can't stop them anymore 

Tear down the walls of your life 

And find your way 



How long

Can this life carry on? 

How long

Watch the walls 

Watch them burning down 

How long

How long must we run? 



Tear down the walls 



How long

Can this life carry on?

How long

Watch the walls 

Watch them burning down 

How long

How long must we run?
