[INTRO]
Em
[VERSE 1]
Em D C C
There's money on table and blight on the floor
C D Em Em
And nobody knows what they're saving for
Em D C C
And the cries for peace can't be heard anymore
C Am Am
Over the sound the carpet bombs falling
[CHORUS]
Em D C C
They starved the kings like the kings did the poor
Em D Am Em Em
And it feels like something is breaking
[VERSE 2]
Em D C C
There's new fires raging in the east streets again
C D Em Em
And there's wounds of hatred all over our skin
Em D C C
And the wider they open the more we descend
C Am Am
Until there's no way of healing
[CHORUS]
Em D C C
If divided we fall this could be the end
Em D Am Em Em
Still feels like something is breaking
[VERSE 3]
Em D C C
The cowards did hide behind digital masks
C D Em Em
And politicians there to fill your own glass
Em D C C
You turned our future into your past
C Am Am
While children drown in the water
[CHORUS]
Em D C C
There once was a light where now it is dark
Em D Am Em Em
Can you tell that something is breaking?
[VERSE 4]
Em D C C
How many more will die on the sand
C D Em Em
How long will it be 'till we understand
Em D C C
It means nothing to put down the flag where you stand
C Am Am
And religion will lead us nowhere
[CHORUS]
Em D C C
We must unplug our brains and discover our hand
Em D Am Em Em
For we all know something is breaking
Em
