Time Immemorial

Wounded soldier, rest a while

In this hosue you're safe from harm

Let the war fight itself

Don't be alarmed

Though I wear a uniform of your army's enemy,

I am no enemy to you

We didn't start this war, or the one before

All we've ever wanted was to love in peace

War is the mindset of those threatened by the thought

Of losing power, and control, don't you see

We have been our worst enemy

But you and I have minds of our own,

We can choose to disengange,

From the collective misperception,

Of the kind of war that's being waged here

We're living in fear

Life, like the stream running through,

The many hills and plaines of landscape you,

To meet the greater body of the sea,

There, not diminished but built upon,

It returns itself to where it came from,

So can it be with you and me

We are the heart and soul of our greater whole

All we've ever wanted was to come home to ourselves

Since time immemorial there's been conflict and war,

Each new one greater than the one before

Don't you see we have been our sole enemy?

But you and I can break the circle,

We don't have to feed the flames

Pointing fingers, blaming others

We are all to blame around here

For living in fear
