Downhere - 1000 Miles Apart lyrics

I wonder when this poison seed made
A root and grew a weed
I wonder when I taught my feet
Not to walk down certain streets
I want to feel what I believe:
That we are all the same
It’s not our houses
It’s our hearts 1000 miles apart

You stay there, and I'll stay here
Into our corners we disappear
And we don’t ever have to talk
'cause you like hiphop and I like rock
But sometimes thoughts hurt just as bad
As striking cheeks with hands
It’s less our homes and more
Our hearts 1000 miles apart

When will we have eyes to see?
When will we learn?
Will we ever have eyes to see


That from our colours we learn?
A change of heart, a change of tune
Can we forgive each other’s wounds?
Can we cut down this fence of
Weeds, and neighbors, close as brothers, be?
Cannot love conquer even when we
Don’t look the same?
'Cause we don’t have to keep
Our hearts 1000 miles apart
