- Fortress Europe Lyrics / with translationsKeep bangin' on the wall
Keep bangin' on the wall
Of Fortress Europe
2022, a new European order
Robot guards patrolling the border
Cybernetic dogs are getting closer and closer
Armored cars and immigration officers
A burning village in Kosovo
You bombed it out, now you're telling us go home
Machine guns strut on the cliffs of Dover
Heads down, people look out, we're going over
Burnin' up, can we survive re-entry
Past the mines and the cybernetic sentries
Safe European homes built on wars
You don't like the effect, don't produce the cause
The chip is in your head, not on my shoulder
Total control just around the corner
Open up the floodgates, time's nearly up
Keep banging on the wall of Fortress Europe
Keep banging
Keep banging on the wall
Of Fortress Europe
We got a right, know the situation
We're the children of globalization
No borders, only true connection
Light the fuse of the insurrection
This generation has no nation
Grass roots pressure the only solution
We're sitting tight
'Cause asylum is a right
Put an end to this confusion
Dis is a 21st century Exodus
Dis is a 21st century Exodus
Burnin' up can we survive re-entry
Past the land mines and cybernetic sentries
Plane, train, car, ferry boat or bus
The future is bleeding coming back at us
The chip is in your head not on my shoulder
Total control around the corner
Open up the floodgates, time's nearly up
Keep banging on the wall of Fortress Europe
Keep banging
Keep banging on the wall
Of Fortress Europe
Dis is a 21st century Exodus
Dis is a 21st century Exodus
They got a right, listen not to de scaremonger
Who doesn't run when they're feel the hunger
From where to what to when to here to there
People caught up in red tape nightmare
Break out of the detention centers
Cut the wires and tear up the vouchers
People get ready it's time to wake up
Tear down the walls of Fortress Europe
Keep bangin' on the wall
Of Fortress Europe
2022, a new European order
Robot guards patrolling the border
Cybernetic dogs are getting closer and closer
Armored cars and immigration officers
A burning village in Kosovo
You bombed it out, now you're telling us go home
Machine guns strut on the cliffs of Dover
Heads down, people look out, we're going over
Burnin' up, can we survive re-entry
Past the mines and the cybernetic sentries
Safe European homes built on wars
You don't like the effect, don't produce the cause
The chip is in your head, not on my shoulder
Total control just around the corner
Open up the floodgates, time's nearly up
Keep banging on the wall of Fortress Europe
Keep banging
Keep banging on the wall
Of Fortress Europe
We got a right, know the situation
We're the children of globalization
No borders, only true connection
Light the fuse of the insurrection
This generation has no nation

Dis is a 21st century Exodus
Dis is a 21st century Exodus
Burnin' up can we survive re-entry

Keep banging on the wall of Fortress Europe

Cut the wires and tear up the vouchers
People get ready it's time to wake up
Tear down the walls of Fortress Europe
