The Divide

Try as hard as we might There will always be a divide Between what's wrong and who thinks they're right Apply this to either side We can say let's get together As we pull each other apart All because we think we know better Have you lately checked your heart And yet we wonder why There is such a great divide When we don't budge an inch How could it grow in size I know, I know what's good for you You seem to say the same for me Perhaps if we followed our own rules Then we all would plainly see But when it comes to both sides Between what's wrong and who thinks they're right Try as hard as we might There will always be a divide
