Picture This Lyrics

Picture This lyrics

Everyday a battle is fought 
Today I was reminded somehow I had forgot  
Everyday a lesson is taught 
Real estate`s important and human life is not 
Is all of this bloodshed worth an outdated plan laid by ancient hands  
Such a crucial piece of earth 
Take a look again it`s a f**king piece of dirt  
Can anyone show me what`s wrong with this picture?  
Something definitely looks out of place to me  
It`s clearly out of focus somebody broke us 
But here`s where the joke is nobody provoked us 
We`re broken and no one`s to blame but us ourselves and we 
We can`t agree so we war egos declare young soldier be scared 
But what are we fighting for 
Something that`s nothing that we can afford 
We glory ourselves in our past ¡°the rockets red glare the bombs bursting in
air¡± 
We fly our flags at half mast 
It`s hard to take pride in young wasted lives  
Picture this a world where governments are more concerned with feeding the
people than their egos  
Picture this a world where borders are mere lines on a map not symbols of
economic gaps 
Picture this respect on a grander scale respect for human rights 
Picture this a world where there`s no need to write songs like this 
Can anyone out there help fix this picture 
Who can make the world a better place to be 
We`ve got one chance let`s take it the world`s what we make it 
If we`re going to change it we can`t be complacent 
The future of the world is up to us ourselves and we
