A World Divided

Once we thought we lived as one As content as anyone The world was right here at our doorsteps But overnight the line was drawn A wall disfigured the break of dawn Divided into two unequal portions Land of glory and construction Versus curfew and corruption Life would never be the same again Forced from freedom to restrictions Refugees on deadly missions Life would never be the same again There's a longing to get out But it's forbidden to say it out loud Someone's watching every move we make It's hard to rise and make a stand With fiery armies in command But rest assured we're still alive and dreaming Land of glory and construction Versus curfew and corruption Life would never be the same again Forced from freedom to restrictions Refugees on deadly missions Life would never be the same again They will never control Our thoughts and our dreams One day soon we will take back what they stole
