Everyone knows the price of regret
Things in life we never forget
Haunted by what we've done wrong
Yearning for the pain to be gone
Some hide in a bottle and some die in vain
Some wave a Bible and some just go insane
Lay down your judgement or lay down your shame
We're all God's children and we all breathe the same
[Chorus]
You're black and I'm white
You're blinded by sight
Close your eyes and tell me the color of my skin
If we let today
Just pass away
Without kindness and forgiveness, there's no light
[Verse 2]
Everyone's broken, oh, everyone's scarred
All the things we needed wind up in the yard
Brothers and sisters, I mean you no harm
Healing's waiting in each other's arms
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
You're black and I'm white
You're blinded by sight
Close your eyes and tell me the color of my skin
If we let today
Just pass away
Without kindness and forgiveness, there's no light
[Outro]
Everyone knows the price of regret
Things in life we never forget
[Verse 1] Everyone knows the price of regret Things in life we never forget Haunted by what we've done wrong Yearning for the pain to be gone Some hide in a bottle and some die in vain Some wave a Bible and some just go insane Lay down your judgement or lay down your shame We're all God's children and we all breathe the same [Chorus] You're black and I'm white You're blinded by sight Close your eyes and tell me the color of my skin If we let today Just pass away Without kindness and forgiveness, there's no light [Verse 2] Everyone's broken, oh, everyone's scarred All the things we needed wind up in the yard Brothers and sisters, I mean you no harm Healing's waiting in each other's arms [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] You're black and I'm white You're blinded by sight Close your eyes and tell me the color of my skin If we let today Just pass away Without kindness and forgiveness, there's no light [Outro] Everyone knows the price of regret Things in life we never forget Explain Request ×
