Silver Walls

[Verse] What do you do when the walls fall down? Where do you run when your home is gone? Who do you turn to when the man who protected you lays dead in a pool of blood? Oh, oh [Chorus] Silver may shine like steel, But it doesn’t hold strong, No, you won’t be safe long If you build your walls out of silver [Verse] If fences make neighbors, Is it our fault? The watchdog didn’t even howl that night You can’t paint white feathers gray And call a dove an eagle [Chorus] Silver may shine like steel, But it doesn’t hold strong, No, you won’t be safe long If you build your walls out of silver [Bridge] Oh, yesterday was a world away We had walls of tarnishing silver [Chorus] Silver may shine like steel, But it doesn’t hold strong, No, you won’t be safe long So don’t build walls out of silver [outro]
