Tytuł: The Night That The Wall Came Down

Maybe you remember, before the wall came down
  How we hared one another from the other side of town
  Now I'm an old man
  And an old man can see
  All that hate can leave you with
  It's just photographs and no permanent past
  And an ever growing rift
  
  Back then it was easy to blame the other guy
  You had it all so they built the wall and we were left to cry
  And a young man
  With a young man's haste
  Will challenge every law
  So he'll try to break out but there's never a doubt
  That he is bound to fall
  Then there's all the lies they tell you
  And the lies you tell yourself
  So you end up crying
  
  [Chorus:]
  The night that the wall came down
  The night that the wall came down
  The night that the bricks fell apart
  And the wall came tumbling down
  
  They said it would protect us, from evil from the west
  How you'd sacrifice everything in the pursuit of personal wealth
  But a mother
  With a mother's tear
  Sees her family torn apart
  There are some by her side others still trapped inside
  Only living in her heart
  So what use, the lies they tell you
  Or the lies you tell yourself
  So you end up shouting
  
  [Chorus]
  
  Oh, oh and don't let them tell you
  The future holds no hope
  Oh, oh, oh never let them beat you
  Look forward, take control
  
  [Verse 1 & M8 rpts]
