Let's lay a brick at a time
We'll build a wall
Who cares what it will divide?
We'll build it tall
One day all of the cracks
Will add up to collapse
Maybe then we can learn
But all we know is how to take a sin
And give it a new spin
And when the world comes caving in
Then we'll be singing
God, look what we made
We build it on mistakes
Manipulate
'Til something turns out right
Will something turn out right
If this is the wrong way?
Let's have a race to the stars
And right back down
Too busy aiming for scars
To break new ground
To everyone who claims
We're all the same
It's just the way we're made
Here's what I say
You're gonna get it now
So bent you have to break
Can't keep your twisted shape
Don't you dare close your eyes
Don't you dare close your eyes
Don't you dare close your eyes
Don't you dare close your eyes
You can pray
You can pray
You can pray all you like
But it won't change a thing singin'
God, look what we made
We built it on mistakes
Manipulate
'Til something goes our way
It turned out great
At least that's what we'll claim
This thing we made
We built it on mistakes
