Lyrics
One
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Put down your guard, doesn't mean that you stop dreaming
Or that you change what you believe in, all I want is us to try
Lay down your arms, doesn't mean that we stop fighting
Only that we recognize that we might've shed blood for our pride
And we shout 'cause we cannot help ourselves, carrying on
And we try to pretend we do no wrong
So we do harm all along
We should have always been as one
One
We should have always been as one
Tear down these walls
They're a danger to our hearts
Monuments to isolation that deny us what we've lost
Make peace not war, is a cause that has no cost
Only that what you believe in, is to stand and bear your cross
And we shout cause we cannot help ourselves carrying on
And we try to pretend we do no wrong
So we do harm all along
We should have always been as one
One
We should have always been as one
Give up on the man you are
The place that you've come from
Without it you might not get far
But with it you're already numb
You'll discover once the damage is done
We should have always been as one
One, one, one
We should have always been as one
One, one, one
We should have always been as one
As one as one
