have you heard the news today
they say we are no longer safe
so who's to take the blame
when an act of hate today
creates many more tomorrow
well where do we go from there?

and it's not too late to say
maybe it's time we put aside our swords for play
you can only win to lose
another day

kurinji
under
your barren tree

we are what we always were
sinners and misused
when will we learn
to cover our proud face
and humbly embrace

that they are just as much
the same as us
as we would like to think
they're not

so we are no longer safe
even words will lose their fame
the more we turn them inside out
and though we search we still remain
out of sync with this place
but have you ever heard
of an alignment set in hate?

so maybe it's time we put aside our swords for play
you can only win to lose
another day

kurinji
under
your barren tree

we are what we always were
sinners and misused
when will we learn
to cover our proud face
and humbly embrace
that they are just as much
the same as us
so what have we to lose
if we are brave enough
and calm enough
to just cover our proud face?

kurinji we wait for thee
under your barren tree
we will grow
