How did we get this far? How did this come to be? Why does fear dominate When all we want is peace? We've got to find a way to heal The wounds that we have bled The empires fall And rise again Save us, save us from ourselves Now We're fighting without a reason We're killing her softly day by day We're guilty we're all in treason It's time to mend this great divide We have to end the hate And fight hypocrisy We have to believe in life And all humanity Think of the children that have to live In what we leave behind The empires fall And rise again Save us, save us from ourselves Now We're fighting without a reason We're killing her softly day by day We're guilty we're all in treason It's time to mend this great divide
