Divided

Never understood, does hatred do us any good? We know the answer Yet we repeat this chapter again and again When will we wake up? I can't be the only one who's fed up Of all the blood-stained headlines We see loved ones lost, we watch their families cry They say that strength comes in numbers So why do we always bring each other down, down, down? I'm so sick of feeling like we're living life Inside this great divide, can we find A way to mend the brokenness? Divided is no way to live What will it take for us to step away From the selfishness that drives us And stop acting like we're kings? We see price before we see what's right We choose power and we don't think twice 'Bout the people that are left behind Have you ever wondered why? The ones with less have more inside (More inside) Treating every day like they could die (They could die) Cherishing the little things 'Cause that's what makes us all the same I know that you know (I know, whoa-oh) They say that strength comes in numbers So why do we always bring each other down, down, down? I'm so sick of feeling like we're living life Inside this great divide, can we find A way to mend the brokenness? Divided is no way to live I don't think that we'll ever learn 'Cause we can never seem To let go of the urge to burn To burn everything that's different Than what we know But that's just how we have always been I hope someday we'll change They say that strength comes in numbers So why do we always bring each other down, down, down? I'm so sick of feeling like we're living life Inside this great divide, can we find A way to mend the brokenness? Divided is no way to live Divided is no way to live Divided is no way to live
