You’re the only one who wants to stay
The rest of us would gladly run away
Cutting through this bamboo just to find God
Claiming that we’ve found him when we’ve not
‘Cause there are men who’re fond of bearing their arms
War on their tongues and hate in their hearts
The only peace that I can find
Is somewhere deep in my own mind
And I’m gone
It’s the way of the world, that’s what they say
The night will come if we just black out the day
Well here I am in the same town, in the same home
Raised on faith and fear of being alone
(chorus)
We all watch the news from time to time
Lock our doors to predators and the sunshine
Pray for change and sing joy to the world
Then call each other names and poison our soil
Maybe we are fond of bearing our arms
War on our tongues and hate in our hearts
The only peace that we will find
Is if we alter our state of mind
And move on
