Verse 1
We’re living in a world so loud,
Every conversation is a battleground,
You shout at me I shout at you
You blame me and I blame you
We all want to show the world we're right
With our bumper stickers and our protest signs
But for our children’s dreams, and the future’s light,
I wish we could just talk about it, and get it all figured out
Verse 2
The walls we build are so hard to climb
But it's easier with an open mind
Beyond the anger, there’s a road to walk,
Where we listen first, and then we talk
They say only the strong survive,
But what if strength is just a compromise?
For the ones we love, for those in need,
I wish we could just talk about it, and get it all figured out
Chorus
From every corner of this broken land,
Every woman, child and man
Across the borders and across the seas,
A better world is more than just a dream.
If we could just talk about it, and get it all figured out
[Verse]
You and I are much the same
Maybe different rules but the same old game
We're all born and then we die
None of us gets outta here alive
We're both right and we're both wrong
We have to try to get along
For every soul, for every life,
I wish we could just talk about it, and get it all figured out
Chorus
From every corner of this broken land,
We need to find a different plan
Across the borders and across the seas,
A better world is more than just a dream.
If we could just talk about it, and get it all figured out
And get it all figured out
And get it all figured out
I wish we could just talk about it,
And get it all figured out
