Tear It Down
They're burning down the old log building, higher
Selling out to business deals
Fuel for the fire
Down the road a silent street is history
Now blacktop underneath my feet
I can feel the change in me
Tear it down to the ground, what have you found?
Digging deeper, are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land that you take, is there a better way?
Tear it down to the ground what have you found?
Digging deeper are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land you take, is there a better way?
Is there a better way?
They gave away the open fields
For fenced in freedom
And put-up signs on riverbeds
Where will it lead them?
Down the road the buildings climb north to paradise
I can't stop the change I see
But I can choose what I want to be
Tear it down to the ground, what have you found?
Digging deeper, are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land that you take, is there a better way?
Tear it down to the ground what have you found?
Digging deeper are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land you take, is there a better way?
Is there a better way?
Take a look at the promised land
Another tree falls, a better plan
And the children play while they say
Take a look at the better plan
More people make more scars on the land
Telling us oh to tear it down
Tear it down now
Tear it down to the ground, what have you found?
Digging deeper, are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land that you take, is there a better way?
Tear it down to the ground what have you found?
Digging deeper are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land you take, is there a better way?
Is there a better way?
Tear it down
Tear it down
Tear it down
Tear it down now, tear it down
Selling out to business deals
Fuel for the fire
Down the road a silent street is history
Now blacktop underneath my feet
I can feel the change in me
Tear it down to the ground, what have you found?
Digging deeper, are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land that you take, is there a better way?
Tear it down to the ground what have you found?
Digging deeper are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land you take, is there a better way?
Is there a better way?
They gave away the open fields
For fenced in freedom
And put-up signs on riverbeds
Where will it lead them?
Down the road the buildings climb north to paradise
I can't stop the change I see
But I can choose what I want to be
Tear it down to the ground, what have you found?
Digging deeper, are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land that you take, is there a better way?
Tear it down to the ground what have you found?
Digging deeper are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land you take, is there a better way?
Is there a better way?
Take a look at the promised land
Another tree falls, a better plan
And the children play while they say
Take a look at the better plan
More people make more scars on the land
Telling us oh to tear it down
Tear it down now
Tear it down to the ground, what have you found?
Digging deeper, are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land that you take, is there a better way?
Tear it down to the ground what have you found?
Digging deeper are you glory bound?
For the price that we pay, the land you take, is there a better way?
Is there a better way?
Tear it down
Tear it down
Tear it down
Tear it down now, tear it down
