作曲 : Moore, Webb | |
i’m building a house on the limb | |
i need something that could stop a war | |
but i’m beset on all sides | |
by extremists with eyes on my heart | |
so i lie to everyone | |
i’ve lied to so many lovers | |
i’ve gotten away with it too | |
but if God is against us | |
then who can be for us my friends | |
there’s justice for everyone | |
please take your hands off my brother | |
please take your laws off my lover | |
the agents of law | |
should always be blind and on time | |
till there’s freedom for everyone | |
where are your american brothers | |
american before they were named | |
they’re a huddling mass | |
with no oceans to cross for our shores | |
where there’s fortune for everyone | |
oppression is always oppression | |
no matter the reasons or means | |
for skin or for sex, | |
by stares or by fists it’s the same | |
there are blinders on everyone | |
i’ve looked through the eyes of my father | |
i’ve walked through lincoln’s backyard | |
and there’s still a backseat | |
when you ride on the bus through this town | |
there’s color on everyone | |
so we lie beneath a tree of no color | |
like an american flag umbrella | |
it keeps the elements out | |
and it’s stuck to the ground in this place | |
but there’s room for everyone | |
i know a way out of hell | |
we raise all our enemies’ children | |
after they’ve murdered ours | |
we affix all their scars to our walls | |
so there’s heartbreak for everyone | |
in the end it will all be ok | |
that’s what the wise men tell us | |
so if it’s not ok then it’s not the end, oh my friends | |
there’s hope for everyone |
