Its such a tired game
|
Will it ever stop
|
How will this all play out
|
Upside out of my mouth
|
|
By now we should know
|
How to communicate instead of coming to blows
|
We're on a roll
|
And there ain't no stopping us now
|
We're burning under control
|
Isn't it strange how
|
We're all burning under the same sun
|
By now we say its a war for peace
|
Its the same old game
|
But do we really want to play?
|
We could close our eyes its still there
|
We could say its us against them
|
We can try but nobody wins
|
Gravity has got a hold on us all
|
We try to put it out
|
But its a growing flame
|
Using fear as fuel
|
Burning down our name
|
And it wont take too long
|
Cause words are burning same
|
And who we gunna blame now?
|
|
And oh, Its such a crying crying crying shame
|
Its such a crying crying crying shame
|
Its such a crying crying crying shame, shame, shame
|
|
By now
|
Its starting to show
|
A number of people are numbers who aint coming home
|
I can close my eyes its still there
|
Close my mind be alone
|
Close my heart and not care
|
But gravity has got a hold on us all
|
Its a terrific price to pay
|
But in the true sense of the word
|
Are we using what we've learned?
|
In the true sense of the word
|
Are we losing what we were?
|
Its such a tired game
|
Will it ever stop?
|
Is not for me to say
|
And is it in our blood?
|
Or is it just our fate?
|
And how will this all play out
|
Upside out of my mouth
|
And who we gunna blame?
|
On and on
|
Its such a crying crying crying shame
|
Its such a crying crying crying shame
|
