Lyrics

0:03its such a tired game
0:06will it ever stop
0:09how will this all play
0:11upside out of mine
0:15by now we should know
0:18how to communicate instead of coming to blows
0:21we`re on a roll
0:24we`re burning under control
0:27isn`t it strange how
0:29we`re all burning under the same sun
0:32by now we say its a war for peace
0:34its the same old game
0:36but do we really want to play
0:38we could close our eyes its still there
0:40we could say its us against them
0:43we can try but nobody wins
0:46gravity has got a hold on us all
0:49we try to put it out
0:51but its a growing flame
0:54using fear as fuel
0:57burning down our name
0:59and it wont take too long
1:02cause words are burning same
1:05and who we gonna blame now?
1:07and oh, its such a crying crying crying shame
1:13its such a crying crying crying shame
1:19its such a crying crying crying shame, shame, shame
1:40by now
1:42its starting to show
1:43a number of people are numbers who aint coming home
1:47i can close my eyes its still there
1:50close my mind be alone
1:52close my heart and not care
1:55but gravity has got a hold on us all
1:58its a terrific price to pay
2:00but in the true sense of the word
2:06in the true sense of the word
2:08are we losing what we were
2:11its such a tired game
2:14will it ever stop
2:16is not for me to say
2:19and is it in our blood
2:22or is it just our fate
2:24and how will this all play out
2:28upside out of my mouth
2:30and who we gunna blame
2:32on and on
2:33its such a crying crying crying shame
2:39its such a crying crying crying shame
its such a tired game
will it ever stop
how will this all play
upside out of mine
by now we should know
how to communicate instead of coming to blows
we`re on a roll
we`re burning under control
isn`t it strange how
we`re all burning under the same sun
by now we say its a war for peace
its the same old game
but do we really want to play
we could close our eyes its still there
we could say its us against them
we can try but nobody wins
gravity has got a hold on us all
we try to put it out
but its a growing flame
using fear as fuel
burning down our name
and it wont take too long
cause words are burning same
and who we gonna blame now?
and oh, its such a crying crying crying shame
its such a crying crying crying shame
its such a crying crying crying shame, shame, shame
by now
its starting to show
a number of people are numbers who aint coming home
i can close my eyes its still there
close my mind be alone
close my heart and not care
but gravity has got a hold on us all
its a terrific price to pay
but in the true sense of the word
in the true sense of the word
are we losing what we were
its such a tired game
will it ever stop
is not for me to say
and is it in our blood
or is it just our fate
and how will this all play out
upside out of my mouth
and who we gunna blame
on and on
its such a crying crying crying shame
its such a crying crying crying shame
