We Breathe the Same

We bleed the same We breed the same You and I we breathe the same We'll be remembered by the trail of dead Maybe the pain or the way we left When everything fell apart, it was hard We were true 'til we reached the end We've all been searching for a better life Maybe it's hiding from our crying eyes But even then will we find what's inside While we're racing the sands of time? As the sun goes down And we think about the future This is all we're asking for To kill the violence, end the war Let's start again and be friends if we can I hope we can wash all the blood from our hands Sick of reading histories Where everyone's an enemy Let's not pretend, take our heads from the sand Cos you and I we bleed the same We breed the same You and I we breathe the same I'm growing tired of insecurity I fear we're living in our darkest dreams But all we hear are the promises made to exploit the insanity Can someone tell me what the question means? I'm smart ordinarily But even now there are signs that I'm fading away from reality As the sun goes down And we think about the future This is all we're asking for To kill the violence, end the war Let's start again and be friends if we can I hope we can wash all the blood from our hands Sick of reading histories Where everyone's an enemy Let's not pretend, take our heads from the sand Cos you and I we bleed the same We breed the same You and I we breathe the same We breathe the same We breathe the same You and I we're steering down the same road DNA been cast from the same mould Same dream, same team, same goals We're just skin, blood and bones We bleed the same We breed the same You and I we breathe the same This is all we're asking for To kill the violence, end the war Let's start again and be friends if we can I hope we can wash all the blood from our hands Sick of reading histories where everyone's an enemy Let's not pretend, take our heads from the sand Cos you and I we bleed the same We breed the same You and I we bleed the same We breed the same You and I we breathe the same
