Fences

Fences

V1

We stake our claim with a post in the ground

These invisible lines become real now

Become real now

We buy our piece of the promised land

For a bargain price and a shake of a hand

We misunderstand

PRE

That this was all ours all along

It’s the very the same dirt we’re standing on

So give what you get, cause that’s

What lasts forever

CH

Love is the breath of heaven

That shows me what’s mine is yours

Love’s tearing down these fences

To put gardens where they once were

V2

Nail by nail, board by board

Swinging hammers just like swords

But tell me what for

With all this power in our hands

We try and disguise our weakness

Where the strength is

PRE2

But this was all ours all along

It’s the very same dirt we’re standing on

So give what you get, cause that’s

What lasts forever

BRIDGE

So, love, love, love somebody when it’s hard to

Forgive, forgive, forgive somebody you don’t want to
