lyrics

Well here we are, made of blood and bones
Teaching our children to go and throw stones
Can you look in the mirror and like what you see, or will
lie to yourself for this thing you call a dream?

When will we ever learn?
We didn't come this far to watch the world burn.
When will ever see
that people sacrificed for our right to be free?

And I hope we will see the light and maybe one day we'll get it right
I hope we will see the light and maybe we'll get it right

We kept on hoping, we worked hard
We paid our dues for a chance at a start
What happened to the days when we loved one another?
'Cause everyone is someone's son or daughter

When will we ever learn?
We didn't come this far to watch the world burn.
When will ever see
that people sacrificed for our right to be free?

And I hope we will see the light and maybe one day we'll get it right
I hope we will see the light and maybe we'll get it right

These songs are the kind of gems that rarely come about for anyone without a long practice of songwriting. The language of the lyrics is always original, connecting commonly felt things in new ways. The music, delivery, and band are perfect vehicles for these wonderful songs. pdxshinn
