lyrics

This is no time to allow ourselves to be
torn apart by hate
This is the time to circle the wagons and
try to get our stories straight
Is it just our nature? Are we too old to learn?
'Cause while we're busy pulling power plays the
whole world's going to burn

There's nothing wrong that what's right can't repair
if we could just let go of who was wrong and what isn't fair
We cling to the things that keep us on our guard, yeah
We've got our issues, baby, and we'd like to change
Man, but it's hard

If all these misunderstandings we've been having
are allowed to persist
We might as well forget about even trying to
continue to coexist
If we cannot reason with one another
then it's open season, better take cover

There's nothing wrong that what's right can't repair
if we could just let go of who was wrong and what isn't fair
We cling to the things that keep us on our guard, yeah
We've got our issues, baby, and we'd like to change
Man, but it's hard

When all we can see are angels and devils
we get so disheveled, uptight, and irate, and we
hate how it feels but we dig in our heels, and
the first flash of wisdom comes always too late

The Brothers Restaino Austin, Texas

The Brothers Restaino grew up playing music together but had never made original music together--until now. Older brother Stephen and younger brother Rich mine traditional American music to make songs about struggling to follow our better natures in a world that often asks for our worst. ... more
