The Way It’s Always Been

A lie for a lie
And a wrong for a wrong
We trade insult for insult
That's how it's always been done
Blood for blood
And a wound for a wound
We trade horror for horror
That's how it's always been done
Always been done
That's how it's always been

We might just find
A way to ease this pain
Once trust is planted
It might just grow again
We know the cost
If this chance is lost
If we return
To the way its always been
Return to the way its always been

A heart for a heart
And a song for a song
A kiss for each teardrop
That's how it's always been done
A smile for a smile
And a hand for a hand
Walm comfort for heartbreak
That's how it's always been done
Always been done
Always been

The light we knew
Hasn't quite grown dim
The hope we planted
May look frail and thin
There's too much to lose
If we don't defuse
And find a way
To trust ourselves again
It doesn't always have to be
The way it's always been
We might find a way
To use this guilt and shame
Find a way to trust ourselves again
A way to trust ourselves again
