Keep Us Apart

We said "give us your lives and more" And we said "take all and all before" Before we find That greed rules our minds We said "spare all" but then waged war Now we say "save us but save no more" It's gonna keep us apart It's gonna keep us apart It's gonna keep us apart It's gonna keep us apart They say, to follow them blindly And to pray, for things that we won't see The powers that be They're in you and me We say "burn less and walk lightly" But we trade, comfort for rising seas I broke such a beautiful home for you I broke such a beautiful home for you I broke such a beautiful home for you I broke such a beautiful home for you You said that we would all get more You said that all our love would grow And you said that it would all restore And you said that this is all we know It's gonna keep us apart It's gonna keep us apart It's gonna keep us apart It's gonna keep us apart Don't let it keep us apart Don't let it keep us apart Don't let it keep us apart Don't let it keep us apart
