lyrics

E A F# B
No child should never have to see
land mines dressed as teddy bears
moms and dads killed by dirty drinking water
there's conflict on every border

Corporations of "the civilized world"
copyrights on seeds and medications
while people are dying from treatable diseases
privilieged assholes preach about Jesus

making bombs that can destroy the whole world
Poisoned rivers runs like veins through our planet
wildlife traded for this months budget
there's a disease in their heads I don't doubt it

E B A B
In fact I wish it's no treatable
and I wish that you could die from greed
and I wish I was drunk and didn't feel
and I just wish that it wasn't for real

E E E E

E A F# B
And my grandma is dying now
she says she's wanna end it right now
Put a needle right through her heart
so she'll never have to feel again

It's beyond our dignity
to fade away in a hospital bed
amputating organ after organ
until there's just nothing left...

E B A B
Now I wish I was drunk in Havana
or I wish I could travel back in time
or I wish some god just gave me a sign
or I wish that we could live as one

I just wish that we could live as one
