Intro
D# A#/D G#
[Refrain]
D# A#/D G#
The brain tends to divide between what's yours and what is mine
D# A#/D G#
And what it believes to be wrong and right
D# A#/D G#
The brain does not seem to know that we all share the same home
D# A#/D G#
And existence is a fact it's not a right
[Chorus]
D# A#/D Gm
The land is the land, the sky is the sky, the water belongs to all of us
F D# A#/D A#
And I can find no reason to mutilate our mother with fences and borders
Gm G#
And obsessive thinking, of proving our individuality
[Verse 1]
D# A# Cm Gm
So what can you do when your fellow man, criminalizes your plan
G# D#
For getting by, and the presence of your body means you've acted
G# A#
Irresponsibly, and you've failed to be born before all the world was taken
[Verse 2]
D# A# Cm Gm G#
And you got nowhere to call home, on a globe, twenty-two thousand miles around
D# G#
And gravity breeds illegality cause it'll always bring you down
A#
On somebody else's piece of ground
[Refrain]
D# A#/D G#
The brain seems to think with enough manipulation
D# A#/D G#
The brain could be master of the sea, the land, the sky
D# A#/D G#
The poor little brain could not seem to realize
D# A#/D G#
That no measure of intelligence could ever improve upon perfection
[Chorus]
D# A#/D G
The land is the land, the sky is the sky, the water belongs to all of us
F D# A#/D A#
And I can find no reason to mutilate our mother with fences and borders
G G#
And obsessive thinking, of proving our individuality
[Verse 4]
D# A#
We can put a man on the moon, but that won't save us
Cm Gm
When the ground's too poisoned and there ain't water enough left
G# D#
To grow our food and liposuction and transplanted hair will keep us sexy
G# A#
As we slowly die from poison in the air we breathe
[Verse 5]
D# A# Cm
We can build a town in half a day, blow each other all away
Gm G#
Go home latter on that day, watch it all on the evening news
D# G#
Despite our age of information, It won't help us without wisdom
A#
And all our ingenuity has only brought us to the brink of annihilation
D# Cm G#
[Outro]
D# Cm G#
Technology cannot replace responsibility
D# Cm G#
And fifty-five don't justify our own poisoning
D# Cm G#
And progress seems like backwards lies cause we all started off with paradise
D# Cm G#
So leave your mark on our world by leaving no mark at all
D# Cm G#
Maybe it's security
D# Cm G#
Maybe it's simple amibition
D# Cm G#
Maybe it's insanity
D# Cm G# A# D#
Maybe it's just good old tradition
