A fence divides a people

A people divide themselves

Trying not to lose hope

When you've lost everything else

A fence divides a people

Changing a way of life

I can't understand

I can't seem to justify 



[Chorus:]

Why someone would build a fence

Tell me to choose a side

Take away my freedom

And expect me not to fight 



Trying to stop what you haven't started

You're sleeping for someone else's dream

Trying to find the truth

It gets too hard to believe 



A house cannot stand

When it's people are on their knees

It' no way to live

It's no way to be free 



[Chorus]



Stand,

Don't walk away

It's just another way

To keep us fighting amongst ourselves

The only thing holding up a wall

Are the people who don't tear it down 



[Chorus]



They're fencing in the horizons

We'll still be here tomorrow

But when you've lost your dreams

Your freedom will follow

A fence divides a people

A people divide themselves

The only thing holding up a wall

Are the people who don't tear it down 



[Chorus]



Stand,

Don't walk away

Tomorrow is another day
