Right or wrong, black or white, I'll have the last word and win the fight
Once my neighbor, now enemy, how did the walls go up so easily?
Hate is such a liar, just a bully on the truth
It comes to steal the love I have for you
Side by side and miles apart, blinded to what's in your heart
Pride and anger stand alone
and in the way
What if I stopped and asked you why?
Look behind the tears you cry
What if I took some time to see your pain?
I might find out we're the same
You have

You have
You have a heartbeat just like mine
Somebody's daughter's son, someone's whole life
You have fear, a worried mind
Kind of scared, hey, so am I
Your picture's so much bigger than the view in front of me
What makes me think that I know what you mean?
Side by side and miles apart, blinded to what's in your heart
Pride and anger stand alone and in the way
What if I stopped and asked you why?
Look behind the tears you cry
What if I took some time to see your pain?
I might find out we're the same
What if I stopped and asked you why?
Look behind the tears you cry
What if I took some time to see your pain?
I might find out we're the same
I might find out we're the same
I might find out we're the same
