Babel! Look at me now Then the walls of my town, they come crumbling down You ask where will we stand in the winds that will howl As all we see will slip into the cloud So come down from your mountain and stand where we’ve been You know our breath is weak and our body thin Press my nose up, to the glass around your heart I should’ve known I was weaker from the start You’ll build your walls and I will play my bloody part To tear, tear them down Well I’m gonna tear, tear them down ’Cause I know my weakness, know my voice And I’ll believe in grace and choice And I know perhaps my heart is farce But I’ll be born without a mask Mumford & Sons performing Babel.
