Backstory:

Just a hope for the political divide in our country to stop. I woke up one more with this idea and some of the lyrics in my head.                                                   

Lyrics:

(Verse)
We’re all stuck in our corners 
We’ve all picked a side 
Diggin' our trenches deeper and deeper
In the great American divide

(Verse)
Lifelong friends walk past each other 
Eyes glued to their feet 
Scroll through each other’s social pages 
Get fired up bout what they read

(Chorus)
Red or blue won’t make a difference 
When they lay us in the ground 
Left or right, we’re all just dust 
When the final bell rings out 
It’s time we tear down the fences
Do more listening, less screamin’
The olive branch starts with us
It's time for healing
Oh, healing

(Verse)
Kids repeat what they hear at home
Causing black eyes at school
Momma’s cryin’ in the kitchen at Thanksgiving
And politics is the fuel…oh yeah

(Repeat chorus)

(Instrumental)

(Bridge)
We've turned words into weapons
How bout we lay ‘em down
Strip away the labels
Yeah, find some common ground

(Breakdown chorus)

(Outro)
We don’t have to agree on everything
Let’s mend our wounds and start healing…ohh, ohh, healing..ohh yeah…healing
