Subtle lines of separation
Mapped out on paper
Another useless boundary
Just another reason
For more division
It seems we want more enemies

The things we had in common withered with time
Ideals that once meant something have all died
The walls we worked to break have been replaced
A scene once filled with love now thrives on hate

We used to stand on the same side (same side)
Until we met this great divide
Based on bullshit labels (labels)
And petty politics
We've lost our way
In this war we wage
Where we're all the same
Alone and scared and simply searching for a better way
So where's the middleground
Where we once stood?
Either we're too strict
With our politics
Or too slack
In the lives
We lead

It breaks my heart
That we let ourselves fall apart
We used to be a threat
United we had a chance,
But divided we don't mean shit
Compared to the mindless masses
We fight against
We've torn our house down
From the inside out
With the convenience of cliques
Our desperate need
To classify everything
Will be our death

We used to stand on the same side
Until we met this great divide
Based on bullshit labels
And petty politics

We used to stand on the same side
Until we met this great divide
We've lost our way
In this war we wage
