To Ferguson

Calm the fire, do not fight anymore.
They don’t know what they’re saying, they don’t know anything at all,
For all that matters is you know that this is not their fault.
There are places we should never go,
Lost between the cracks, something wicked waits below.
And all I’m saying there are some things better left unseen at all.

It’s been so long, it’s tearing me apart.
I cannot understand or comprehend
Where we went wrong. Now we’ve come so far,
The madness in our hearts will never end.

Cause I’ve seen it all.
I can’t fight it anymore.
If fire burns forevermore,
Is there nothing left to save?

Cause now more than ever what we need,
Is love to replace all the obscene.
Something good and something beautiful, if only we could see
That now more than ever what we need,
Is a little love.

Is there no more have we gone too far?
There’s nothing I can do to make you sway
To see the blood running through our hearts,
No different from the blood we’ve come to hate.

When I close my eyes,
I dream that we are colorblind.
And now you know you can’t deny,
Only ignorance to blame.

Now let it calm the fire that burns within your heart tonight,
For some are too blind to see the world as it’s meant to be.

When I close my eyes,
I dream that we are colorblind,
And now you know you can’t deny
Only ignorance to blame.

Cause now more than ever what we need,
Is love to replace all the obscene.
Something good and something beautiful, if only we could see
That now more than ever what we need,
Is a little love.
