Текст песни A Beginning, a Middle - Nieves

We don′t breathe the air in
'Cause we can′t trust our neighbors
We divide without caring
Now it's just in our nature

And we don't understand it
So we read it in paper
They say hate is the answer
And violence, our savior
Compound our behavior

Days begin and end
Borders to defend
Tally up the dead
Wave the flag and start again

Torture for the truth
Hide it in the news
Actions are excused
With promises of greater good

They say it′s all been decided
By some heavenly order
And your god is divinest
So you kill in his honor
His word is the law now

Oh, days begin and end
Borders to defend
Tally up the dead
Wave the flag and start again

Torture for the truth
Hide it in the news
Actions are excused
With promises of greater good

And I will watch the second hand
And ponder everything we have
Why must we watch, or count the sand
And we can′t be late if there's no plan

And I know this ticking has to stop
I think about the end a lot
But we are here despite the odds
This fleeting moment′s all we've got

All we′ve got
All we've got
All we′ve got
All we've got
All we've got
All we′ve got
All we′ve got

I know this ticking has to stop
I think about the end a lot
But we are here despite the odds
This fleeting moment's all we′ve got
