I know where you come from, I know who you are
You paint yourself in gold and your blood runs cold
You come from up the valley where the rivers run so deep
You think you can take this world with your words
I know the reason you come around here
You made a mess back there and you ran away in fear
Now you think you've got it all worked out
Now you see things clear
But in fact, it's only a matter of time
It's a matter of time, before the walls come tumbling down
You sit on your throne smoking your cigar
While the servants wash your car, you hope to go far
Your tongue is soaked in lies, and as the time flies
You impose on others your chains and ties
I know the reason you come around here
You made a mess back there and you ran away In fear
Now you think you've got it all worked out
And now you see things clear
But In fact, it's only a matter of time
It's a matter of time, before the walls come tumbling down
Oh, you better run, before the walls come tumbling down on you
