Lyrics When the Walls Come Crashing Down - Jon Foreman, Jillian Edwards, Colony House

When the Walls Come Crashing Down

We’re in the middle caught in the riddle
Don’t know where to start
Don’t Know where it ends
And we try not to break while everything is changing
Use to do what we want
Now we just make what we can
And the walls come crashing down
Every last stone hit’s the ground
Then the silence breaks with sound of a song
That the world is now singing all together
We hold the matches all covered in ashes
The smoke in the air yeah the tension’s still here
We draw lines in the sand
Build walls with our hands
Burn bridges out of fear of everything we don’t understand
Until the walls come crashing down
And the last stone hits the ground
Then the silence breaks with sound of a song
That the world is now singing all together
We were singing all together
Yeah it’s holding us together
When the walls come crashing down
And the last stone hits the ground
In the silence we’re the sound of a song
That the world is now singing all together
When the walls come crashing down
And the last stone hits the ground
In the silence we’re the sound of a song
That the world is now singing all together
When we reach the other side
And we leave what’s lost behind
When we dance into the light
There’s a song that goes on
We’ll be singing it forever
We’ll be singing it together
