Fall Apart

Why can't we come closer while we fall apart?
These words we trip over before we even start
Drop our defenses before it goes too long
The absence of conflict doesn't mean that peace will come

'Cause you can't have peace on earth
'Til you have it here inside
In every one of us again

Why can't we talk about this?
Instead, we all pretend
We know we can't give what we don't already have

'Cause you can't have peace on earth
'Til you have it here inside
In every one of us again
Just take your time, yeah, hurry up
When we all know this all should stop
It's time again

Just wake up, it's time to think again
This fighting between us has got to end
Wake up, it's time to think again

'Cause you can't have peace on earth
'Til you have it here inside
In every one of us again

Why can't we come closer while we fall apart?
