Lyrics
Verse 1
O god it's happening again
I turn on the news, I can't keep watching.
Buildings on fire, People are crying
Desperate cuz there's no solution.
Where do you run between love and a gun?
I've tried to keep my head in the sand
Everyone's got their own opinion
Just live my life, my kids and my wife
Make Music amidst the pollution
But there is a choice between love and a gun
Chorus:
When it's all falling down
And the world is imploding
Can we make the choice between love and a gun?
Verse 2
There is no creed that needs to prevail
History shows all these things fail
People of good will, stand together still
Keep dreaming the dream til it is real
Yeah we are the ones between love and a gun
Chorus:
When it's all falling down
And the world feels like it's imploding
We are the choice between love and a gun.
Bridge:
Yes I've imagined all the people
Living in harmony
But when there's so much fear and darkness
I need some faith to believe
That one person's faith in love can rise above
one little action cause a chain reaction that spreads across the world
to a unification of one heart that beats louder than the blast of bombs
Yeah we are the choice between love and a gun.
