Why can't we agree to disagree
Front line on the battlefield
But what does that mean
We run for cover
From one another
Pay the price for choosing sides
But who's the enemy
As soon as shots are fired
They've got so much to say
Cross my fingers hoping for change
Such a long long way from paradise
But what if we try
Turn the fighting into compromise
We just might survive
It's so easy to remember
But it's harder to surrender
No I won't be satisfied
Till it's more than words
Maybe I'm right
Or maybe I'm wrong
Maybe we find peace with the lights on
Here one minute
Next minute it's gone
It's gone
Different opinions under attack
I'ma watch yours if you're watching my back
Shot of that love
All it takes to bounce back
As soon as shots are fired
They've got so much to say
Cross my fingers hoping for change
Such a long long way from paradise
But what if we try
Turn the fighting into compromise
We just might survive
It's so easy to remember
But it's harder to surrender
No I won't be satisfied
Till it's more than words
Oooo
More than words
Oooo
It's so easy to remember
But it's harder to surrender
No I won't be satisfied
Till there's more than words
Everywhere I turn
Another fire burns
And everyone's just standing around (around)
Healing to the hurt (oh)
Who's gon' do it first (first)
Everyone's talking
But who's gon' walk it
Such a long long way from paradise
But what if we try
Turn the fighting into compromise
We just might survive
It's so easy to remember
But it's harder to surrender
No I won't be satisfied
Till it's more than words
Oooo
More than words
Oooo
It's so easy to remember
But it's harder to surrender
No I won't be satisfied
Till there's more than words
