I'VE KNOWN SOME NAMES AND FACES.
FROM PLACES LONG AGO.
ALMOST LONG FORGOTTEN.
UNTIL I SAW THE WALL.
STANDING OH SO SOLEMNLY.
INTENDING NO DISPAIR.
DRAWING OUT A PART OF ME.
THAT I FORGOT WAS THERE.
I MOVED ALONG ITS MARBLE FACE.
MY EYES INSIDE THE NAMES.
SEARCHING FOR SOMEONE I KNEW.
FEELING IN MY VEINS.
HEARING VOICES CALL MY NAME.
SEE FACES STARE AT ME.
COMRADES ROUND MY LONELY SELF.
IN DARK ETERNITY.
CHORUS:
THE WALL IS NOT MY ENEMY.
THE WALL IS NOT MY FRIEND.
IT'S ONLY A REMINDER OF.
WHAT IS, AND COULD HAVE BEEN.
THE LIFE WE TAKE FOR GRANTED.
IS NOT ALWAYS GUARANTEED.
AND CAUSES WE TAKE ARMS FOR.
ARE NOT ALWAYS WELL RECEIVED.
I DID NOT WANT TO GO THERE.
BUT THEN AGAIN I DID.
I HAD TO LET MY BROTHERS KNOW.
THE DEMONS DID NOT WIN.
THEY TOLD ME I'M FORGIVEN.
SHOULD I NOT COME AGAIN.
WE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER.
I DON'T HAVE TO DIE AGAIN.
[CHORUS]
I'VE KNOWN SOME NAMES AND FACES.
FROM PLACES LONG AGO.
ALMOST LONG FORGOTTEN.
UNTIL I SAW THE WALL
