Brad Borch - The War is 2 B 1

There are clouds on the horizon
There is terror in the air
There are signs to keep your eyes on
There are omens everywhere

Can you hear the sabers rattle
Can you feel the fractures form
See both sides are poised for battle
Can you sense the coming storm

There is no one here beside us
It's beliefs that divide us
Why do we let our tribes divide us
The war is to be one

A soldier at a console
Just another working day
Fires fury from a drone
Flying half a world away

As he sips his cup of coffee
Faceless enemies will die
When he fires wonder could he
Look his victim in the eye

There is no one here beside us
It's beliefs that divide us
Why do we let our tribes divide us
The war is to be one

You can blame some ideology
Or you can call it sin
Left or right it's still a fight
That nobody's gonna win

We gaze deep in the abyss
Every time we cross that line
That collar 'round my foe's neck
Is a noose around mine

There is no one here besides us
We all live under one sun
Why do we let our tribes divide us
The war is to be one

Till every one of us is free
Not a one of us will be
Peace is just a fantasy
If we don't love our enemy

What's behind us must remind us
It's our own egos that blind us
Slaves to lies and fears that bind us
In each other we will find us

We learn lust for domination
Learn hypocrisy and greed
In the sick and twisted sewers
Where the ego goes to feed

It is friend fighting friend
It is father versus son
It's a war that will not end
Until the day we see as one

There is no one here besides us
We all live under one sun
Why do we let our tribes divide us
The war is to be one

The war is not to be won
The war is to be one
The war is not to be won
The war is to be one
