American Tragedy lyrics


Tait


Art is in motion, look around
At the everyday people in everyday towns
Love is an ocean as deep as the sky
Gotta keep our arms open or we're never gonna fly
CHORUS
It's a tragedy
All the hate I see
Am I left to be
A slave to history
Love's our common ground
Yeah, my skin is brown
Ain't no sweeter sound
Walls are tumblin' down
I can't deny it overwhelms
That changing your world means changing yourself
You can't tell me that you've already tried
Cause we're never gonna shine
Until we swallow our pride
CHORUS
The questions in you are the questions in me
And I'm no closer to answers than you are to me
If we just believe then we all can be free
