You take Michael
And I'll make plans
Promise no favours
Or make wicked demands
You come forward
And we take it in stages
If I don't feel welcome
Will we have to trade to places?

The walls,
The walls come tumbling down
If I cry, I'll cry out loud
The fists we make,
The words we don't intend
The walls,
The walls come tumbling down
Come tumbling down

I'll play difficult
And you play martyr
I've never been trouble to anyone
But, you do your best to pretend
Hearing the voices of strangers
Words that can tear me in half
Keep up the face for appearance
Families that fall apart

The walls,
The walls come tumbling down
If I cry, I'll cry out loud
And, the fists we make
And, the words we don't intend
The walls,
The walls come tumbling down
Tumbling down
Tumbling down
Tumbling down
Tumbling down

And, if I keep my head up straight
And, if I do my business well
And, if I had my crown again
I'd do things different
