Streetlight Manifesto Skyscraper lyrics

Come let us make bricks and burn them hard
We'll build a city with a tower for the world
And climb so we can reach
Anything we may propose, anything at all

Build me up, tear me down like a skyscraper
Build me up and tear down these joining walls
So they can't climb at all
So they can't climb at all

Yeah, I know why you tore it down that day
You thought that if you got caught we'd all go away
Like a spoiled little baby who can't come out and play
You had your revenge

Build me up, tear me down like a skyscraper

Build me up and tear down these joining walls
So they can't climb at all
So they can't climb at all

Well, madness reigned and paradise drowned
When Babel's walls came a crashing down
Now the echoes roar for the story lived
That was hardly understood and never any good

So build me up, tear me down like a skyscraper
Build me up and tear down these joining walls
So they can't climb at all
So they can't climb at all
