Stars & Stripes Lyrics

Graham Nash Stars & Stripes

Sometimes I wonder why the world is like it is
Frozen by the fear of change
If we keep believing all the lies meant to divide us
There's no one else we can blame

And I can't remember when my world was not on fire
Where people lived in fear and flames
I sit here watching as the fire keeps getting higher
Burning up the mountain range

Stars and Stripes are out there waving
Goodbye to all that's true
I won't fall for this illusion
Just tell me the truth
I always thought that we would make it in the end
But my optimism's out of sight
We're all we have and on that you can depend
But we're slowing coming into the light
Stars and Stripes, Stars and Stripes, Stars and Stripes
