Walls of Silence

The air is thick with whispers, seeds of doubt they sow
Painting lines between us, then watch the anger grow
They build the walls up higher, brick by bitter brick
Turn neighbour against neighbour, with their sly and subtle trick

They want us to hate each other, don't let them win
Divide and conquer, that's how the darkness begins
We got to stand together, and not be controlled
Break down these walls of silence and let the truth be told

They feed us fear and fury, on a silver, twisted spoon
Pointing fingers blindly, fuelling us with gloom
They tell us we are different, that we can't coexist
But dig beneath the surface the same heartbeat persists

They want us to hate each other, don't let them win
Divide and conquer, that's how the darkness begins
We got to stand together, and not be controlled
Break down these walls of silence and let the truth be told

We've seen this play before, throughout history's page
The same old tactics used, to fuel the burning rage
We can learn from the past, and break the vicious cycle
Choose love over hatred, reconcile and reconcile

They want us to hate each other, don't let them win
Divide and conquer, that's how the darkness begins
We got to stand together, and not be controlled
Break down these walls of silence and let the truth be told

They want us to hate each other, don't let them win
Divide and conquer, that's how the darkness begins
We got to stand together, and not be controlled
Break down these walls of silence and let the truth be told

They want us to hate each other, don't let them win
Divide and conquer, that's how the darkness begins
We got to stand together, and not be controlled
Break down these walls of silence and let the truth be told
