CHORDS

Lyrics:

Out of the emptiness
You offer your hand
to try to heal the ties that were severed
Too many arguments I don’t understand
Now I know
It’s time to gather stones together

We don’t have to look too far for the answers
It’s who we already are

If we dig deep enough
To where we know we’re connected
We’ll let our anger release
When we can learn to trust
That our opinion’s respected
We’ll live together in peace

L’shalem, l’shalem
Over the border lines that were drawn in the sand
We have been nurtured with hatred and with lies
Centuries of blood spilled over who owns this land
But can you see the pain in my eyes?

You don’t have to wait for the keys to the kingdom
Salvation’s already come

If we dig deep enough
To where we know we’re connected
We’ll let our anger release
When we can learn to trust
That our opinion’s respected
We’ll live together in peace

When I see my own reflection in my lover or my enemy
Only then can we exist in harmony

If we dig deep enough
To where we know we’re connected
We’ll let our anger release
When we can learn to trust
That our opinion’s respected
We’ll live together in peace

L’shalem, l’shalem
