Highland Park

Oh say can you see
The barrel of the gun
Pointing back at me
The land of the free
The same old way
Is how it's gonna be

Hot July
A day of independence
That some did not survive
Oh can't we try
To save one another
Not blame the other guys

What is it all for
Not safe outside our door
We're in a hot war
We won't have a prayer
If they won't work anymore

When will things change
They can't get together
And we remain estranged
We can't rearrange
We can't wait forever
To make a fair exchange

What are they good for
Blood on the marble floor
Behind the closed doors
We won't have a prayer
If they won't work anymore

When will there be more
Than hollow words and gore
We cannot ignore
We won't have a prayer
If they won't work anymore
