It's such a tired game

Will it ever stop

How will this all play out

Out of sight, out of mind

By now we should know

How to communicate instead of coming to blows

We're on a roll

And there ain't no stopping us now

We're burning under control

Isn't it strange how

We're all burning under the same sun

By now we say it's a war for peace

It's the same old game

But do we really want to play?

We could close our eyes it's still there

We could say it's us against them

We can try but nobody wins

Gravity has got a hold on us all

We try to put it out

But it's a growing flame

Using fear as fuel

Burning down our name

And it wont take too long

Cause words are burning same

And who we gunna blame now?

And oh, it's such a crying crying crying shame

It's such a crying crying crying shame

It's such a crying crying crying shame, shame, shame

By now

It's beginning to show

A number of people are numbers who aint coming home

I can close my eyes it's still there

Close my mind be alone

I can close my heart and not care

But gravity has got a hold on us all

It's a terrific price to pay

But in the true sense of the word

Are we using what we've learned?

In the true sense of the word

Are we losing what we were?

It's such a tired game

Will it ever stop?

Is not for me to say

And is it in our blood?

Or is it just our fate?

And how will this all play out

Out of sight, out of mind

And who we gunna blame?

On and on

It's such a crying crying crying shame

It's such a crying crying crying shame shame shame
