Too long in trouble, I wish it would end. |
|
Could we live side by side, could we be friends? |
|
We're not all the same, I know this is true. |
|
But I am just me, and you are just you. |
|
We tell our own lives, we live all thus. |
|
The old dreams don't die, the memories last. |
|
But to die for a dream, is such a tragic romance. |
|
Prejudice and pride, a dangerous dance. |
|
Oh hear the pipes playing, take up your stance. |
|
And our children will pay for our dangerous dance. |
|
And the best part of reason, gets lost in time. |
|
Not just off old books, it's still in our eyes. |
|
And there's beauty in old books, when there's truth on the page. |
|
And when we're all gone, what will the books say? |
|
Oh hear the pipes playing, take up your stance. |
|
And our children will pay for our dangerous dance. |
|
Oh hear the pipes playing, take up your stance. |
|
And our children will pay for our dangerous dance. |
