9/11 - it is an appeal to seek understanding and common ground between peoples rather than resorting first to war and other destructive action.

Hey, mister rival
You can take down my towers
But you can't kill my flowers
Cause they'll just grow back even taller

And see them distant fires flare
And they're fueled by centuries of tears
And it's still the same old fears
That just come back even stronger

But your pride is only admirable
If it's equalled by tolerance
And wouldn't it be wonderful
If we could find the confidence
To wake up in confusion
Work it out till it made sense
Give and get a second chance
We've all been beat up enough
I think we've all been beat up enough

So hey, lovely daughters
Who can't find your fathers
So you take to being mothers
It's the same goin round cross other borders

And there's a snake in the family tree
And he tempts you and me
He ain't exempt from heredity
As the world spins around, there's still vanity

But your pride is only admirable
If it's equalled by tolerance
And wouldn't it be wonderful
If we could find the confidence
To wake up in confusion
Work it out till it made sense
Give and get a second chance
We've all been beat up enough
I think we've all been beat up enough

And there's a kid on a lonely street
With no shoes. He got sores on his feet
And he ain't had a thing to eat
And it could be you (or me) in a heartbeat

But your pride is only admirable
If it's equalled by tolerance
Wouldn't it be wonderful
If we could find the confidence
To wake up in confusion
Work it out till it made sense
Give and get a second chance
We've all been beat up enough
I think we've all been beat up enough

I think we've all been beat up enough
I guess we've all been beat up enough
