Lyrics
Verse
It's not about you it's not about me
It's the strings pulled tight on the puppetry
The voices on the screen loud but hollow
They lead us down roads we shouldn't follow
Prechorus
Breaking homes with every word
Shaking trust with lies unheard
Chorus
Go back to the basics of everyday life
When we all got along without the strife
No red no blue just fields of green
A place where peace is seen unseen
Verse 2
The cracks in the pavement match our divide
Neighbors turn strangers we all pick a side
We used to share bread now we share blame
Lost in the fire of this endless game
Bridge
Remember the mornings soft and kind
When laughter was easy and love wasn't blind
We didn't need banners or lines to cross
Now all we count is gain and loss
Chorus
Go back to the basics of everyday life
When we all got along without the strife
No red no blue just fields of green
A place where peace is seen unseen
