I look at all the things they've put you through
I didn't think too hard before I asked them to treat me like you
And they do
Oh, how they do
I practice closely everything that has come from your lips
They say they do it too, but all I see is when they slip
They're pointing fingers and playing the biggest blame game I've ever seen
We're supposed to come together, but that's not any closer than it seems
This is a war that I know I will never win
But it doesn't matter about the end result, more so the journey within
I find myself muttering, and crying
How did we get here?
Did we forget about what you did for us while you were dying?
I am guilty too
Every time I see the truth, the pain shoots straight through
So as the pressure builds inside this little human head
I close my eyes and focus on the words that you said
"Blessed are those who mourn..."
"Blessed are those who are merciful..."
"Blessed are those who are pure in heart..."
Dear God, let them not break me down and tear me apart
