Landon Elliott - Born on a Faultline

All the people in the street
Yeah they’re bursting at the seams
Country burning to the ground
Because the stars don’t align
And the colors of the stripes
Looking more like blood and white
Guns and money in the Name
Hallelujah said in vain
We got everything we need
What a shame when we see
That the fences in between have been there all along
Yeah, they’ve been there all along

There once was a dream
Where the name of your street
Wouldn’t mean a thing
But now the tectonics beneath
are still shaking everything
Neighborhoods are bleeding out

And what happened to the dream
Where love is all you need
And we sang the harmony
Now that skin is in the game
Focus to the frame
Let the people sing out

Born on a Faultline
Pulled off to one side
Red on the inside
Born on a Faultline

Born on A Faultline
In between and underneath there’s a current pulling me
Pulled off to one side
Who taught you how to hate, who gave your soul a name
Red on the inside
As a child couldn’t see who’s blood was on the street
Born on a Faultline
