Sad State Of Affairs letra

Keep your distance, don't cross that line
You stay on your side, and I'll stay on mine
Fear and ignorance intertwine
Twisting and wrenching infecting my mind

I'm begging I'm pleading
Can't help but feeling
If love was a person, that person's not breathing

We bleed the same blood
We break the same bones
We fan the same flame
We cast the same stones
We magnify subtleties up in our heads
Till compassion and empathy wind up dead

Piercing glances through darkened eyes
Your true intentions outshine your disguise
Finding new reasons to justify
Painting the age old dividing lines

Sacrificing compromising
Sucking me dry

I'm begging I'm pleading
Can't help but feeling
If love was a person, that person's not breathing

We bleed the same blood
We break the same bones
We fan the same flame
We cast the same stones
We magnify subtleties up in our heads
Till compassion and empathy wind up dead

It simply means that every nation
Must be concerned about every other
Nation
Every individual must be concerned about every other individual
Through our scientific genius, we made of the world a neighborhood
We must all learn to live together as brothers or we will all perish
Together as fools

I'm begging I'm pleading
Can't help but feeling
If love was a person, that person's not breathing

We bleed the same blood
We break the same bones
We fan the same flame
We cast the same stones
We magnify subtleties up in our heads
Till compassion and empathy wind up dead

I'm begging I'm pleading
I'm asking I'm needing
I'm ripping I'm clawing
I'm desperately seeking
A vision, a sign
A weapon, sublime
To vanquish the hatred and leave it behind

We bleed the same blood
We break the same bones
We fan the same flame
We cast the same stones
And all we'll have left at the end of the day
Is a mountain of nothing
A vacuum, decay
