The Wall - K'NAAN

You don’t have to launch a missile to break down my defense

You don’t need a fighter jet to end our arguments

We don’t have to be like everyone to use our common sense

So I guess it’s time we burned the documents

Cause you’re crazy I’m crazy so there ain’t a thing to lose

Except our pride it’s suicide of all we ever knew

In some ways we’re east and west and the wall is coming down

Sometimes we celebrate other times we say what have we done

And I feel you holding on and I’m holding on too

But no matter what we say or do the wall is coming down

The wall is coming down

Down down down

I see you coming 'round

Cause your wall is coming down

I don’t have to build a fortress to hide what you can’t see

I don’t have to be the master and hold onto the key

Sometimes I feel so certain that we were meant to be

But I guess it’s fine if you disagree

So whenever we turn the wheel peace talking make a deal

You remind me of Palestine and I feel so Israel

Look at all the walls I’ve built and look at all the guards you’ve killed

And if the gates would open would it be more loving

Or would all my fears turn real

So for now I suppress your demonstration and I undress you here’s the question

Is this love making or masturbation if every touch feels like instigation

I’m so sure if we all trusted the force of love

Even if our past is awful also break our pride in the torso

Whatever it takes for down these walls go

In some ways we’re east and west and the wall is coming down

Some times we celebrate other times we say what have we done

And I feel you holding on and I’m holding on too

But no matter what we say or do the wall is coming down

The wall is coming down

Down down down

I see you coming 'round

Cause the wall is coming down
