|
This news won't break my heart |
|
It's already been blown apart |
|
I feel like a helpless girl |
|
In this tender troubled world |
|
Another bomb lights up the night |
|
For someone's vision of paradise |
|
But it's just a wasted sacrifice |
|
That fuels the hate on the other side |
|
All in the name of a holy land |
|
All to claim a line in the sand |
|
Oh but the promised land |
|
Is just across another line in the sand |
|
Yeah but the promised land |
|
Is just across another line in the sand |
|
Just like at Calvary |
|
Soldiers do the bidding of their king |
|
And dreams are lost one at a time |
|
Blown across both sides of the line |
|
You can't kill a giant with just one stone |
|
You can't erase the story of a family's home |
|
A hate-filled heart still beats alone |
|
Walking on that endless road |
|
And there's so much blood on all our hands |
|
It cuts an even deeper line in the sand |
|
Chorus |
|
I hope a forgiving rain will fall sometime |
|
And wash away that line |
|
Chorus |
