Ours was a grand affair
But it didn't turn out as planned
For better or for worse
We’ve always stayed together never ever came undone
Despite the doubts of everyone
Now here we are fragmented pieces
United only in our name
Sharing nothing but the blame
Always these pointed fingers
Deflecting focus from ourselves
Mostly pointing at the shame
We've got to do more
Overcome this thing
If there's any hope to carry on
How can we just throw it all away?
All this progress
Are were willing to call this done?
Really willing to call it done?
It's such a dark thing
Hiding from each other
what we have in common after all
how do we come to stand here?
Denying we’re sisters and brothers
focused on building up the walls
Is it easier to stay in darkness?
Not even labor for a flame
Simplify the pain with blame?
Always with these pointed fingers
Deflecting focus from ourselves
And turning from the shame again
We've got to do more
Overcome this thing
If there's any hope to carry on
How can we just throw it all away?
All this progress
Are were willing to call this done?
Really willing to call it done?
Ours was a grand experiment
Didn't always turn out as planned
For better and for worse
But when we work together
We always seem to get stuff done
And shine a light for everyone
But not here in this darkness
No there ain't no burning flame
And I'm afraid we're all to blame
Just throwing accusations
Rejecting basic decency
And the world looks on ashamed
We've got to do more
Overcome this thing
If there's any hope to carry on
How can we just throw it all away?
All this progress
Are were willing to call this done?
Really willing to call it done?
I’m not really willing to call it done.
