American Horror Story

[Verse 1]
I'm afraid we're all too numb to know that life
Is the greatest thing we've been given
Just a moment's all it takes for us to cry
Then go about the ways we're living

[Verse 2]
All the pain your brother feels you'll never know
If you never take the time to ask him
A little girl just rode her bike outside my window
I couldn't help but worry what could happen

[Chorus 1]
Cause just the other day
My neighbor fought with someone
Just for walking on his precious piece of land
And down the road I heard a woman crying hеlp me
Cause her husband lost his cool again

[Verse 3]
In a momеnt everything can fall apart
But we waste our precious time on fighting
Over who’s in charge or what the laws should be
I couldn’t hear you over all that gunfire

[Chorus 2]
Why’s a family shot inside a store for shopping
For some food to go and help feed the poor
And while you’re arguing a girl has just been murdered
By her brother who was angry at the world

[Bridge]
While you wait for change
Take a moment for your brother
While you wait for peace
Go ahead and drop your sword
Cause all the history we’ve been fixing
And all the lives that we’re left missing
Will never mean a thing
If we never feel the pain

[Verse 4]
I’m afraid we’re all too numb to know that love
Is the greatest thing that we could give
Just a moment’s all it takes for one to know
But it seems we’re all far too busy

[Chorus 3]
While a son is being punished by his father
For telling him that he has feelings for a man
And a girl is being beaten by a stranger
Just a man who couldn’t have his way
