Blue Rodeo - Love and Understanding lyrics

I live on this rock
Where the grass don't grow
And talk is cheap well I ought to know
And I'm not proud of this world we've made
Still it's a part of you and me
And we're the only ones who can
Make it change

Many have tried in many ways
All I see are longer rows of crosses on the
Soldiers' graves so do what you have to
And when it's all been said
Love and understanding are the best answers
I've heard yet i've heard yet

Yeah, so tell me what's the
Price of our achievements
What's the cost of our pride
When our obvious brutality
Is lost before our eyes
So we choke down the pills
So that you don't have to bother
Trading one hypnotic state for another

Many have tried in many ways
All I see are longer rows of crosses on the
Soldiers' graves so do what you have to
And when it's all been said
Love and understanding are the best answers
I've heard yet so do what you have to
And when it's all been said
Love and understanding are the best answers
I've heard yet i've heard yet
