In the country split by strife,
and carved up by the victor's knife
And at the end at the communist's call, Berlin was split by an evil wall
Corrupted minds divided the spoil, and you were caught in the serpent's coil
They tried to say that your pride was a crime, and they tried to bury pride
until the end of time

(chorus)
Tear it down now, tear it down
Tear this wall of tears, tear it down to the ground
Tear it down now, tear it down
Tear this wall of tears, tear it down to the ground

And now the people dance in the
street, ??????????? and the foe is beaten
Just look now the Red beast has stopped killing, we must remember that he's
dangerous still
The price you paid for believing the truth, in the evil victory yeah the wall
was the proof
The Nuremberg martyrs' voices raised, and the world will know they should have
been praised.

(chorus)

instrumental break

(chorus) x2

Wall of tears…
