Every empire was raised by the slave
Built through the ages destroyed in a day
Solid walls your golden cage
Now it's time to turn the pageTearing down, we're gonna burn it
To the ground, you'll never learn it
Watch us now, we're tearing down the world
Tearing down the worldBrother to brother, father to son
No one recalls when the madness began and nobody cares
Can you live your life in hell?
Can't you hear the warning bell?Tearing down, we're gonna burn it
To the ground, you'll never learn it
Watch us now, we're tearing down the world
Tearing down the worldTearing down, by bits and pieces
To the ground, we'll never miss it
Watch us now, we're tearing down the world
Tearing down the worldWater's like acid and heaven's like hell
Whole world's like paper and steel
What should we do if it won't ring a bell?
Tell me just what do you feel?Drink out the ocean and stare down the star
Burn down the forest and steal food from hungry
You made it so far
Tell me just what do you feel?Tearing down, we're gonna burn it
To the ground, you'll never learn it
Watch us now, we're tearing down the worldTearing down, by bits and pieces
To the ground, we'll never miss it
Watch us now, we're tearing down the world
World, world
