Lyrics Antidote - Jon Simpson

Could we only for a moment envision new reality
The broken of creation righted into what can truly be

What if hate held no attraction, we stopped seeking who to blame
And egos and our self-importance made our heads hang in shame
What if every conversation was a love song to a friend
And fiercest rivals turned to allies, bringing wars to end

Still we live in days of wonder, but our times are filled with pain
Will we turn away the antidote for this broken world, for our broken hearts
That′s calling out our name

What if leaders used their power to alleviate despair
Instead of using and abusing those entrusted to their care
What if every life was sacred, every person truly free
What if no one ever prospered corrupting liberty

Still we live in days of wonder, but our times are filled with pain
Will we turn away the antidote for this broken world, for our broken hearts
That's calling out our name

Still we live in days of wonder, but our times are filled with pain
Will we turn away the antidote for this broken world, for our broken hearts...
While the world waits by in hunger, we′ve kept our bellies filled to pain
When will we recognize the antidote for our broken world, for the broken heart
Shares our very name
