You can’t take back what was said
I hurt you I know it had to be done
I was tired of all the fighting
Where has our peace of mind gone
We dig in and get stuck in the mud
Protect our space at all costs
Ancient ties hold us apart
When is too much enough
Bring us home keep us safe
We are not fighting now
Bring us home keep us safe
Surrender to love somehow
Together we can make it work
Work will only make us free
We can look far and wide
If we climb the highest tree
