[Verse 1] Data is a fragile thing Packets flow through every string Bound by rules and wire I built the rules into the firewall [Chorus] I fell into the rules of the firewall Locked it down, down, down, made the ports grow small And it stops, stops, stops, at the firewall At the firewall [Verse 2] The taste of breach is mean When holes slip in between I locked it down like a child Oh, but the traffic ran wild [Chorus] I fell into the rules of the firewall Locked it down, down, down, made the ports grow small And it stops, stops, stops, at the firewall At the firewall [Bridge – soft backing guitar, reflective tone] Every rule a story told Every log a rule retold Building walls against the storm Keeping safe what we hold [Chorus – full band, bigger low-end] I fell into the rules of the firewall Locked it down, down, down, made the ports grow small And it stops, stops, stops, at the firewall At the firewall
