If I could stay mad enough maybe I'd leave
But you gotta understand
This runs twenty-two years deep
Everyone wants it all
Everyone needs a place
You can destroy or you can create
All I know is all that I know
And I know we all just beguile the time
But it all catches up
And it's all so fucked up
And only time will tell
Oh, how it echoes
Oh, when it echoes
It hits like a ton of feathers, when it echoes
Common ground
Can't be found
From atop a hill looking down, look around
Take me to sleep, c'mon, put me to weep
Can't you see that you've given your souls up for keeps?
Oh, how it echoes
Oh, when it echoes
It hits like a ton of feathers, when it echoes
Yeah, but it all catches up and it's all so fucked up
Take me to sleep, c'mon, put me to weep
Can't you see that you've given your souls up for keeps?
And only time will tell
We send in poor people
To fight other poor people
We send in our brothers and sisters
And daughters and sons
There's no difference
We send in to kill while we sit on our asses
And watch green screens infotain all day long
And it hits like a ton of feathers, when it echoes
