Lyrics
"THE KINGDOM WITHIN"
Words and Music by Peter Merz
Arrangement by Wayne Bowers
How long has it been since we've seen eye to eye
Tell me why can't we knock down this wall of pride
And for once in our lives just let the past die
Don't care what happened, that was then and this is now
Just pick up the phone and talk to me somehow
Together let's tear apart our silent shrouds
And let’s forget about who's going to win
'Cause it’s not important anymore
A brother offended is harder to win than a strong city
And quarrels are stubborn as the bars of a castle
CHORUS: Oh, I can't see out and you can't see in
We're locked behind the kingdom within
With our willing hands we built a wall of pride
Now you can't see in and I can't see out
We're both locked inside our kingdom within
Who will bend the bars that keep us trapped inside
Inside the kingdom, the kingdom within
Inside the kingdom, the kingdom within
I'm tired of hurting you for your hurting me
I am tired of this distance that we keep
Can't we just let live, just wipe the slate clean
Not gonna fight or slam the door anymore
I'm not gonna try to even up the score
I'm just laying my defenses down on the floor
Oh can't we heal these wounds, the ones that we mask
We desperately need the healing to begin
A brother offended is harder to win than a strong city
And quarrels are stubborn as the bars of a castle
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE: Can we ever get beyond who's right and break free
Dismantle this Kingdom, this kingdom within
Can't we find some common ground, both you and me
And escape our Kingdom, our kingdom within
REPEAT CHORUS
