We've been here before and we'll be here again

We seem to look for something that's missing

And when we can't see eye to eye

Then we know it is killing

This isn't a game about the score

At least we'd understand that more

So, when we cannot find our common ground

Feels like our world is breaking

But maybe this time we can start anew

Maybe this time it'll all come true

Can we burn it away and start again?

Burn it away

But after the smoke clears it will not go away

It just pushes back for another day

And no matter how many things are agreed

These unequal values will always impede

These steps that we take are hard to imagine

Maybe it's something we all go through

We simply hold onto the good times

Before it all comes crashing down

We try so much we try so hard

We know it shouldn't be this way

So, when we cannot find our common ground

Feels like our world is breaking down

Lost for so long

Something feels wrong

Alter our key values so that we get along

I know it's wearing thin

But fix it up again

Time after time

Yeah, I know it is broken

Are we so blind to see?

How long can we believe?

Time after time

Yeah, I know it is broken

And after the smoke clears it will not go away

But maybe this time we can start anew

Maybe this time it'll all come true

Just burn it away and start again

Just burn it away

Maybe it's time to just let go?

If I ever get there

I'll let you know

Lost for so long

Something feels wrong

Alter our key values so that we get along

Lost for so long

Something feels wrong

Alter our key values so that we get along

I know it's wearing thin

But fix it up again

Time after time

Yeah, I know it is broken

Are we so blind to see?

How long can we believe?

Time after time

Yeah, I know it is broken

And after the smoke clears it will not go away
