When Will We Learn

We walk the line but we can’t tell the truth
We’re tripping on the holes between what we say and what we do
I’m not talking about this side or that
Cause I’m looking at both and I can’t help but ask
When Will We Learn (repeat)
How many times will we hear in our lives
About the man busy saving the world who’s still hitting his wife
We act surprised when we go back to war
But after seeing the hate in these streets it won’t surprise me anymore
When Will We Learn
I know I’m not saying
Anything that hasn’t been said before
I’m just praying for a time
When we won’t sing it anymore
We’ll sing …
When Will We Learn (repeat)
