Its such a tired game   Will it ever stop?   How will this all play out   Upside out of my mouth      By now we should know   How to communicate instead of coming to blows   We're on a roll and there ain't no stopping us now   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 won't 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 beginning the show   A number of people are numbers who ain't 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   Are we using what we've learned?   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 gonna blame?      On and on   Its such a crying, crying, crying, shame   Its such a crying, crying, crying, shame   Its such a crying, crying, crying, shame, shame, shame
