(Shout)

(Oh) Hey, everybody take a vote for freedom
(Oh) And shout the walls down
(Oh, shout) Everybody all around the world
(Oh) Gonna shout the walls down

Man who lived and cried alone
Built these walls from brick and stone
Said, "Hey, baby, I need someone
To help me hide from my life"
They found him lying in her bed
Tears had stained the pillows red
Wanted to be free instead
But couldn't get away

(Oh) Everybody take a little bit of love now
(Oh) And shout the walls down
(Oh, shout) Everybody all around the world
(Oh) Gonna shout the walls down

Hey, everybody gotta hear you shout
(Shout the walls down to the ground)
So open your hearts and let it out now
(Shout the walls down, shout the walls down)
Oh, give me, give me your freedom song
(Shout the walls down to the ground)
Don't stop 'til you reach someone
Shout the walls down, ooh yeah
(Oh, shout) Everybody take a vote for freedom
(Oh) And shout the walls down
(Oh, shout) Everybody all around the world
(Oh) Gonna shout the walls down, let's go

(Shout)
(Oh)
(Oh)

(Shout)
(Oh)
(Oh)
(Shout)

She believed in something more
Wanted to live just a little bit longer
Then he walked right through the door
And carried her away
He built these walls from brick and stone
Called these prison walls a home
Ain't it funny how you can fall so low
But never fly away?
Fly away, yeah

(Oh, shout) Everybody take a little bit of love now
(Oh) And shout the walls down
(Oh, shout) Everybody all around the world
(Oh) Gonna shout the walls down (Shout)
Everything was gonna be alright
Full days and lovers' nights
And now she's lying back on the floor (Shout)
Wishing for something more
(Oh) And seven years, they don't mean a thing
Yeah, well, a diamond ring
She closed her eyes and he's someone new
And she knows he's dreaming too (Shout)

Hey, modern man, hey, watch TV
Every night and she wants to scream
(Oh) I'm wasting my life away
Too scared to run away
(Oh) Too old to fight, too tired to try
Oh Lord, I don't know why
But one day, I'm gonna turn around
And shout the walls down

(Oh, shout) Everybody take a vote for freedom
(Oh) And shout the walls down
(Oh, shout) Everybody all around the world
(Oh) Gonna shout the walls down (Shout)
