Crying Shame

Will it ever stop?
How will this all play out
Out of sight out of mind
By now we should know how to communicate
Instead of coming to blows, We’re on a roll
And there ain’t no stopping us now
We’re burning under control
Isn’t it strange how we’re all burning under the same sun?
Buy now and save, it’s a war for peace
It’s the same old game
But do we really want to play?
We could close our eyes its still there
We could say it’s us against them
We could try but nobody wins
Gravity has got a hold on us all
We could try to put it out, but it’s a growing flame
Using fear as fuel
Burning down our name
And it won’t take too long
Words all burn the same
And who are we going to blame now?
It’s such a crying, crying, crying shame
By now it’s beginning to show
A number of people are numbers that aren’t coming home
I could close my eyes it’s still there
Close my mind be alone
I could close my heart and not care
But gravity has got a hold on us all
It’s a terrific price to pay
But in the true sense of the word
Are we using what we’ve learned?
But in the true sense of the word
Are we losing what we were?
It’s such a tired game
Will it ever stop?
It’s not for me to say
Is it in our blood or is it in our fate?
And how will this all play out?
Out of sight, out of mind
Who are we going to blame all in all?
It’s just a crying, crying, crying shame
