HALF STEP DOWN
[Intro]
B5
[Verse]
B5
Dancing on the crumbling precipice
The rocks are coming loose just at the edge
D5
Are we laughing? Are we crying?
E5
Are we drowning? Are we dead?
Or was it all a dream?
B5
The bombs are getting closer every day
'That can never happen here' we used to say
D5
Have these wars come to our doorstep?
E5
Has this moment finally come?
Or was it all a dream?
B5
[Chorus]
G5 A5
Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough?
B5 D5
Is the violence in our nature just the image of our maker?
G5 A5
Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough?
B5 D5
To become something greater than the violence in our nature?
G5 A5
Are we not good, good enough or was it all a dream?
B5
[Verse 2]
B5
To a pretty time and fate are we condemned
Or maybe we're a book without an end
D5
We're not stories, we're not actors
E5
We're awake and in control
And this is not a dream
B5
So can we break this mold
And set in motion something new
D5
Forgetting what we know
E5
An evolution overdue
D5
Fight the current
Pull the ripcord
E5
Get away!
[Chorus]
G5 A5
Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough?
B5 D5
Is the violence in our nature just the image of our maker?
G5 A5
Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough?
B5 D5
To become something greater than the violence in our nature?
G5 A5
Are we not good, good enough
B5
[Bridge]
A5
We travel back
To what we take
We need a storm
B5
Let's pray for rain now
G5 A5
To wash these roads away
Let's get off track and wander far
B5
Same roads reducing destinations
G5 A5
Do nothing but show our heart
We're talking in our sleep
B5
And sleeping through our lives
G5 B5
We dream of the places where we never die
G5
We step from the shadows
B5
And into the light
[Chorus]
G5 A5
Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough?
B5 D5
Is the violence in our nature just the image of our maker?
G5 A5
Are we not good enough? Are we not brave enough?
B5 D5
To become something greater than the violence in our nature?
G5 A5
Are we not good enough
B5 D5
Are we not brave enough?
G5 A5
Are we not good, good enough?
B5
Or was it all a dream?
