Everybody take a vote for freedom
And shout the walls down
Everybody all around the world
Going to shout the walls down
Man who lived and cried alone
Built these walls from brick and stone
Said hey baby I need someone
To help me hide from my life
They found him lying in her bed
Tears had stained the pillows red
Wanted to be free instead
But couldn’t get away
Everybody take a little bit of love now
And shout the walls down
Everybody all around the world
Going to shout the walls down
Everybody got to hear you shout
So open your hearts and let it out now
Give me give me your freedom song
Don’t stop till you reach someone
Shout the walls down.
Everybody take a vote for freedom
And shout the walls down
Everybody all around the world
Going to shout the walls down
She believed in something more
Wanted to live just a little bit longer
But then he walked right through the door
And carried her away
He built these walls from brick and stone
Called these prison walls a home
Aint it funny how you can fall so low
But never fly away
Fly away
Everybody take a little bit of love now
And shout the walls down
Everybody all around the world
Going to shout the walls down
Everything was going to be alright
Full days and lovers’ nights
And now she’s lying back on the floor
Wishing for something more
And seven years, they don’t mean a thing
Yeah well, a diamond ring
She close her eyes and he’s someone new
And she knows he’s dreaming too
Hey, modern man, hey, watch TV
Every night and she wants to scream
I’m wasting my life away
Too scared to run away
I'm too old to fight and too tired to try
Oh Lord, I don’t know why
But one day I’m going to turn around
And shout the walls down
