Blue Rodeo - Love And Understanding lyrics

I live on this rock Where the gra** don't grow Talk is cheap well I ought to know And I'm not proud of this world we've made Still it's a part of you and me And we're the only ones who can Make it change Many have tried In many ways All I see are longer rows of crosses on the Soldiers' graves So do what you have to And when it's all been said Love and understanding are the best answers I've heard yet I've heard yet Tell me what's the price of our achievements What's the cost of our pride When our obvious brutality Is lost before our eyes So we choke down the pills So you don't have to bother Trading one hypnotic state for another Many have tried In many ways All I see are longer rows of crosses on the Soldiers' graves So do what you have to And when it's all been said Love and understanding are the best answers I've heard yet I've heard yet
