Powderfinger - How Far Have We Really Come? lyrics

Despite the miseries And the lessons learned from history The pattern still repeats Never to surrender don't you ever repeat How far have we really come? Until the ones who are leading us Make peace their resolution tonight Make peace your resolution tonight There's an arms race to be run Building bigger better dagger headed bombs So let's drink to the daughters and sons Never to return to their mother's arms For every battle lost and won are these the ones that we offer up?
