A Better Tomorrow (Remix)

(Soft, steady drum beat, clean electric guitar chords, a light bassline pulse)

Yeah, let’s talk about the space in between.

No shouting, just listening.

Let’s find the common thread.

I see the flags waving on the left and the right

Everybody shouting in the middle of the night

But the sun rises up on the same patch of ground

Maybe there’s a harmony waiting to be found

We stare at the screens with our armor on tight

Waiting for the signal to start up the fight

But if you look closely at the person next door

Are they really the enemy you're looking for?

It’s the middle ground where the progress flows

Not in the extremes where the anger grows

Let’s walk the path that is steady and wide

With nowhere to run and nowhere to hide

Just a conversation under open skies

Where the truth isn't hidden by the compromise

Yeah, the middle ground is where we stand

Building a bridge across the shifting sand

Policies drift like the tide on the shore

Sometimes we’re less, and sometimes we’re more

But the rhythm of life keeps a steady pace

Despite all the shadows we try to erase

I’m tired of the labels, the red and the blue

I want to see me in the heart of you

Let’s lower the volume, let’s let the dust fall

Maybe there’s room for the sake of us all

It’s the middle ground where the progress flows

Not in the extremes where the anger grows

Let’s walk the path that is steady and wide

With nowhere to run and nowhere to hide

Just a conversation under open skies

Where the truth isn't hidden by the compromise

Yeah, the middle ground is where we stand

Building a bridge across the shifting sand

It’s not about losing the stance that you hold

It’s about warming the stories we’re told

Listening deeper than the surface of sound

Till the shared human value is finally found

(Guitar solo, mellow and melodic)

So tomorrow we wake to a brand new day

With a chance to change what we usually say

Not a total surrender, but a hand reached out

To clear up the static and remove the doubt

It’s a slow build, yeah, it takes some time

To make the logic and the heart align

But the world keeps spinning, let it spin right

In the morning glow, not the heat of the fight

It’s the middle ground where the progress flows

Not in the extremes where the anger grows

Let’s walk the path that is steady and wide

With nowhere to run and nowhere to hide

Just a conversation under open skies

Where the truth isn't hidden by the compromise

Yeah, the middle ground is where we stand

Building a bridge across the shifting sand

Yeah, the middle ground.

Just a steady pace.

Keep it balanced.

We’re all just walking on the same ground.

(Fade out with warm guitar chords and steady rhythm)
