Victims of hearing damage
sounds muffled through unopen ears
Minds of intransigence, unwelcome rampage
Misconceptions of all that one hears
Why can't we speak our words with understanding
every discussion's bound to turn to debate
brick walls of our entitlement clash
How can peace reign when we keep confiding in hate?
Question your theory please & I'll question mine
Let's contemplate, negotiate with handshakes & wine,
Here, grudges & conflict are made easier than amity-
than tranquility & unity & all that's sublime.

How can peace reign when we keep confiding in hate?
Question your theory please & I'll question mine
Let's contemplate, negotiate with handshakes & wine,
Here, grudges & conflict are made easier than amity-
than tranquility & unity & all that's sublime.
