The Great Divide lyrics

Subtle lines of separation 
Mapped out on paper 
Another useless boundary. 
Just another reason 
For more division. 
It seems we want more enemies. 

The things we had in common withered with time. 
Ideals that once meant something have all died. 
The walls we worked to break have been replaced. 
A scene once filled with love now thrives on hate. 

We used to stand on the same side (same side) 
Until we met this great divide 
Based on bullshit labels (labels) 
And petty politics. 
We've lost our way 
In this war we wage 
Where we're all the same. 
Alone and scared and simply searching for a better way. 
So where's the middleground 
Where we once stood? 
Either we're too strict 
With our politics 
Or too slack 
In the lives 
We lead. 

It breaks my heart 
That we let ourselves fall apart. 
We used to be a threat. 
United we had a chance, 
But divided we don't mean shit 
Compared to the mindless masses 
We fight against. 
We've torn our house down 
From the inside out 
With the convenience of cliques. 
Our desperate need 
To classify everything 
Will be our death. 

We used to stand on the same side 
Until we met this great divide 
Based on bullshit labels 
And petty politics 

We used to stand on the same side 
Until we met this great divide 
We've lost our way 
In this war we wage
