I wonder when this poison seed made a root and grew a weed
E F#4 D#m E
I wonder when I taught my feet not to walk down certain streets
E F#4 D#m E
I want to feel what I believe: that we are all the same
E F#4 D#m E
It's not our houses, it's our hearts 1000 miles apart
E F#4 D#m E (2x) E (4x)
Uhhhhh.....
E F#4 D#m E
You stay there, and I'll stay here, into our corners we disappear
E F#4 D#m E
And we don't ever have to talk, 'cause you like hiphop and I like rock
E F#4 D#m E
But sometimes thoughts hurt just as bad as striking cheeks with hands
E F#4 D#m E
It's less our homes and more our hearts 1000 miles apart
E F#4 D#m E (2x)
Uhhhhh.....
E F#4 D#m E
When will we have eyes to see?
E F#4 D#m E
When will we learn?
E F#4 D#m E
Will we ever have eyes to see
E F#4 D#m E
That from our colours we learn?
E F#4 D#m E
E F#4 D#m E
C# change of heart, a change of tune, can we forgive each other's wounds?
E F#4 D#m E
Can we cut down this fence of weeds, and neighbors, close as brothers, be?
E F#4 D#m E
Cannot love conquer even when we don't look the same?
E F#4 D#m E
'Cause we don't have to keep our hearts 1000 miles apart
D#m E
C# 1000 miles apart .... (2x)
