Everyday a battle is fought
Today I was reminded somehow I had forgot
Everyday a lesson is taught
Real estate`s important and human life is not
Is all of this bloodshed worth an outdated plan
laid by ancient hands
Such a crucial piece of earth
Take a look again it`s a fucking piece of dirt
Can anyone show me what`s wrong with this
picture?
Something definitely looks out of place to me
It`s clearly out of focus somebody broke us
But here`s where the joke is nobody provoked us
We`re broken and no one`s to blame but us
ourselves and we
We can`t agree so we war egos declare young
soldier be scared
But what are we fighting for
Something that`s nothing that we can afford
We glory ourselves in our past ¡°the rockets red
glare the bombs bursting in air¡±
We fly our flags at half mast
It`s hard to take pride in young wasted lives
Picture this a world where governments are more
concerned with feeding the people than their egos
Picture this a world where borders are mere lines
on a map not symbols of economic gaps
Picture this respect on a grander scale respect
for human rights
Picture this a world where there`s no need to
write songs like this
Can anyone out there help fix this picture
Who can make the world a better place to be
We`ve got one chance let`s take it the world`s
what we make it
If we`re going to change it we can`t be
complacent
The future of the world is up to us ourselves and
we
