From the recording Walls
Melodic and heavy, this song calls out power abuse and the toxic discourses used by the rich and powerful to divide and conquer.

Lyrics
In a white tower, you crave power
You believe lies, myths deep inside
You think you worked so hard, like a guiding star
Atop your monument downtown, what goes up must come down
Keeps crumbling down, weakening
Keep building walls, and you will die too
Brick by brick you'll fall, you won't be rescued
Every day, you run away, there is no threat, except regret
Keep building walls, and you will die too
Go out, see the world, people who struggle
Faces and names, we’re not to blame
It's all fake news in your myopic view, just look around
Ignore the warnings it’ll break down
Keeps crumbling down, weakening
Keep building walls, and you will die too
Brick by brick we'll fall, you won't be rescued
Every day, you run away, there is no threat, except regret
Keep building walls, and you will die too
Brick by brick, you will fall (we’ll fall) x3
Keep building walls, and you will die too
Brick by brick we'll fall, you won't be rescued
Every day, you run away, there is no threat, except regret
Keep building walls, and you will die too
