Текст песни
At first the world was fire burning hot and fast and dry
We watched the land grow hotter a shed fell down from the sky
We watched the forest blacken, we cried out and prayed for rain
While the wind it just blew harder all around us burning flames
However big, however strong
You can build it but someday it's gonna fall
No matter how big, no matter how strong
You can build it, someday it's gonna fall
And then the rain it started and our world came pouring down
We packed our things, we spread our wings and we head for higher ground
It washed away so much we love now we're left standing here
All this broken land made new again, the water washed it clear
However big, however strong
You can build it but someday it's gonna fall
No matter how big, no matter how strong
You can build it, someday it's gonna fall
Our air has turned to poison and our water catches flame
Under our beds in which we lay
We're digging holes we'll never fill, the ground shakes to protest
But we just close our minds and eyes and ears, there ain't no stopping progress
However big, however strong
You can build it but someday it's gonna fall
No matter how big, no matter how strong
You can build it, someday it's gonna fall
