Joseph Schwartz - Tangled Words Lyrics

In old worn lines, we search again To understand what they intend
The right to bear, the right to fend But where's the line in what we defend
Oh, words are tangled, they bring debate An endless cycle, a heavy weight
In modern times, the echoes stay
What was the message meant to convey?

Are we safe, or led astray? In the shadows, truth seems to sway
Oh, the words are tangled, they bring debate An endless cycle, a heavy weight
In the silence, questions grow loud Voices and visions form a shroud
Are we guided by what we read? Or are we lost in history's seed

Oh, the words are tangled, they bring debate An endless cycle, a heavy weight
In the courtroom, decisions fall Judging lines drawn long before us all
With every ruling, a new call But does the truth still stand tall?
Oh, the words are tangled, they bring debate An endless cycle, a heavy weight
