PLANTING TREES - Master Mason Lyrics

Privilege, egoism, laziness and fear
Are the bricks of the master mason
To build a wall
That will last for centuries
Here he will keep the sheep he cares for
In a golden cage
And they won't be swayed
Cause they only know his face

He builds a wall, he builds a wall
So that they can be safe forever
He builds a wall, he builds a wall
So he can be the only god

A peaceful life in captivity
Can be a blessing or (Can be a blessing or)
Else you're condemned to
Search for a meaning by yourself
Well beyond the good and evil
At risk of getting lost, (A risk of getting lost)
Though uncertain scenes and dresses
You've put on before

He builds a wall, he builds a wall
So that they can be safe forever
He builds a wall, he builds a wall
So he can be the only god

Maybe the blood remembers
The time your fathers lived
Enclosed in a green garden
Well-fed and tended to
It wasn't a barbarian assault breaching
The salvific wall
It sufficed the realization
There's so much more to the world

He builds a wall, he builds a wall
He builds a wall, he builds a wall
We've got no guts more to compete
He builds a wall, he builds a wall
We've lost the will to better ourselves
He builds a wall, he builds a wall
We've lived in a safe bubble for so long
He builds a wall, he builds a wall
That we forgot what is living for real
He builds a wall, he builds a wall

He builds a wall, he builds a wall
So that they can be safe forever
He builds a wall, he builds a wall

He builds a wall, he builds a wall
So that they can be safe forever
He builds a wall, he builds a wall
So he can be the only god
