The Violence

歌詞

Dancing on the crumbling precipice The rocks are coming loose just at the edge Are we laughing? Are we crying? Are we drowning? Are we dead? Or is it all a dream? The bombs are getting closer every day "That can never happen here," we used to say Have these wars come to our doorstep? Has this moment finally come? Or is it all a dream? Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough? Is the violence in our nature just the image of our maker? Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough? To become something greater Than the violence in our nature? Are we not good, good enough? Or is it all a dream? To a predetermined fate are we condemned? Or maybe we're a book without an end? We're not stories, we're not actors We're awake and in control And this is not a dream So can we break this mold And set in motion something new? Forgetting what we know An evolution overdue Fight the current, pull the ripcord, get away Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough? Is the violence in our nature just the image of our maker? Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough? To become something greater Than the violence in our nature? Are we not good, good enough? Well trodden paths are all we take We need a storm, let's pray for rain now To wash these roads away Let's get off track and wander far Same roads lead to same destinations Follow nothing but your heart We're talking in our sleep And sleeping through our lives We dream of the places where we never die We step from the shadows And into the light Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough? Is the violence in our nature just the image of our maker? Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough? To become something greater Than the violence in our nature? Are we not good enough? (Good enough) Are we not brave enough? (Brave enough) Are we not good, good enough? Or was it all a dream?
