I wonder when this poison seed made a root and grew a weed
G A4 F#m G
I wonder when I taught my feet not to walk down certain streets
G A4 F#m G
I want to feel what I believe: that we are all the same
G A4 F#m G
It's not our houses, it's our hearts 1000 miles apart
G A4 F#m G (2x) G (4x)
Uhhhhh.....

G A4 F#m G
But sometimes thoughts hurt just as bad as striking cheeks with hands
G A4 F#m G
It's less our homes and more our hearts 1000 miles apart
