Crossfire

[Verse 1]
Standing on the edge of this precipice
Thinking we could fall or we could fly
While they're still settling their differences
Tell me, how many more children must die?

[Chorus]
An eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
Nothing, no, nothing
Could be further from the truth
Without a ceasefire to the crossfire

[Verse 2]
The wall and the wires are dividing souls
Crossing the palm of every child's hand
Buried 'neath the dust and the rubble
In a crumbling, bloody sacred land

[Chorus]
An eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
Nothing, no, nothing
Could be further from the truth
Without a ceasefire to the crossfire

[Verse 3]
Too many prayers have been left unanswered
Voices pleading from deep within the heart
Here we are living on the same planet
Heaven knows why we're worlds apart

[Chorus]
An eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
But nothing, no, nothing
Could be further from the truth
Without a ceasefire, there'll be crossfire
