We should overcome
F C
There's enough at stake
F C G F
For us to tear the walls down and escape
F C
Leave it all behind
F C
Erase and start anew
F C G F
It's not a question if it's just what we should do
Em Am F C
There's hope for anyone on the other side
Em Am F G
What's the use in hope if we're afraid of trying?
We should understand
Try to sympathize
With the kind of people we despise
There's nothing left to lose
Except for compromise
Looking at the world through someone else's eyes
We've got a lot to learn from the other side
We're too proud to see what we're busy denying
(Solo - same progression as verse)
There's salvation waiting on the other side
We don't want to live but we're afraid of dying
Life is what you choose
Love is what you make
Success is based on chances that you take
We're the ones to blame
If absolution is denied
'Cause we were so concerned about the other side (End on C)
