lyrics

They built it up, it's up to you
Seven Ks of barbed wire insults
Freedom isn't given, it's a right
Take it from us and you know we'll fight
It must come down

Good fences make good neighbours do they?
You can never hear a word I say
A line of cops to blocks off our ideas
Freedom of speech lost amongst the tears

CHORUS
Why do you think you know the facts from what you saw on air?
Why attack the kids who are the only ones who care?
A little lesson in democracy
Disention is permitted, but not for you and me

A town divided, friends united
A freedom found, a torch ignited
The symbol of a new agenda
Look outside for your defenders

The battle lines are drawn
It rages on
Just hold your ground
It must come down
