lyrics

They are ordinary, nondescript walls
Plain people, calm and quiet
Ordinary till the tide turns
Voices get sharp, start to rise
Eyes frenzied, don't know what to do
Or who they should look up to
They're divided by an invisible line
It's time to pick a side now

And we all tear the walls down
Oh, what did you expect?
Yeah, we're human, no regrets, oh oh
And we all tear the walls down
Oh, what did you expect?
Yeah, we're human, no regrets

Sharp objects hidden in their clothes
Planning out an overthrow
Figure which way the mob will go
Paranoia is highly contagious so
Please cover your mouth and nose
Fearful leader knows it's just a matter of time
Before he's out to dry

And we all tear the walls down
Oh, what did you expect?
Yeah, we're human, no regrets, oh oh
And we all tear the walls down
Oh, what did you expect?
Yeah, we're human, no regrets

We've got no direction, we've got no respect
Each interjection as loud as the next
How can we know which way to go
Or are we all alone?

And we all tear the walls down
Oh, what did you expect?
Yeah, we're human, no regrets, oh oh
And we all tear the walls down
Oh, what did you expect?
Yeah, we're human, no regrets
