When Walls are breaking

Intro:
Two worlds, shattered and burned,
Scarred by hate, from love they turned.
But when life hit us, sharp and fast,
The abyss became a bridge at last.
A storm tore down what once stood tall,
Heart to heart, we saw it all.
Verse 1 (Personal Level):
Your father yelled, and you stayed quiet,
I learned to hide, to avoid the riot.
Fear was your teacher, guilt was my law,
We lived in shadows, but never saw.
What parents gave was love in despair,
But often it left death hanging there.
Chorus:
What’s left when anger cuts so deep?
What heals when pain is all we keep?
In the other, there’s a part of you,
The truth may bleed, but it heals too.
Where walls come down, life can begin,
And peace is found in being human.
Verse 2 (Israel and Gaza):
He says: “I never knew my home,
It was rubble and dust as I walked alone.
My father spoke of a time long gone,
I carry his scars, but I can’t move on.”
She says: “My childhood was forged in war,
The fire took brothers, my heart grew sore.
But deep in the cold, I see you now,
If we could, we’d change it somehow.”
Chorus:
What’s left when anger cuts so deep?
What heals when pain is all we keep?
In the other, there’s a part of you,
The truth may bleed, but it heals too.
Where walls come down, life can begin,
And peace is found in being human.
Bridge (The Catastrophe):
The flood came, and it took our land,
No banner, no name could make a stand.
We built together, we stood as one,
Your pain became mine, your fear was gone.
Maybe we’re brothers, forged by despair,
United by life, a need we share.
Chorus (Final):
What’s left when anger cuts so deep?
What heals when pain is all we keep?
In the other, there’s a part of you,
The truth may bleed, but it heals too.
Where walls come down, life can begin,
And peace is found in being human.
Outro:
Rage in our eyes, hands full of dust,
But hope is stronger than greed or lust.
Maybe peace is not a distant dream,
Perhaps it’s real, when we just let it be.
