lyrics

When The Walls Came Down
(c)Kevin Fisher

When the walls came down
There was smoke from the fire still burning
There were soldiers whose lives were returning
As ashes and dust to the earth
When the walls came down
There were flags from the enemy falling
There were voices in unison calling
To return to the place of our birth

Where we fought like the angels of hell were brought in
And the floods of the Bible were rising again
And our feet were dug hard in the ground
When the walls came down

When the walls came down
There were mothers whose teardrops were kissing
The photos of those who were missing
And whose memories the centuries will fade
When the walls came down
There were prayers for the dead and the dying
With the papers impatiently trying
To make sense of the final crusade

Where we fought like the end of the world was at hand
We held to our hearts and our chain of command
And the news reached the outskirts of town
When the walls came down

Dreaming of days when the land was a peace
And thunder was nothing to fear
We knew in our hearts that the fighting would cease
And the world all around us would hear
When the walls came down

Where we fought like the end of the world was at hand
We held to our hearts and our chain of command
And the news reached the outskirts of town
When the walls came down

Naked To The World Los Angeles, California

We tried to break up. But there must be some quantum time-shift or random wormhole that forces us to slide back into perpetual existence. We started in 1993, garnered some accolades, released 5 CDs, toured the U.S., had our songs cut by major artists, and garnered a bit of commercial airplay ourselves. We are grateful for everyone who has ever come to one of our shows and enjoyed our music. ... more
