Collide - Broken Land Lyrics

Took the same old exit off the freeway
But the map had changed, now nothing looks the same
People I once knew, I don't recognize
I see a stranger in my neighbor's eyes
I don't know who we are
A nation torn apart
Can't fix what I can't find
Can't even read the signs
So, take my hand, won't you take my hand
And lead me from this broken land
'Cause I don't understand, I don't understand
How we heal this broken land
There's a man standing on the corner here
Preaching through his bullhorn, "The end is near!"
Shouting out in Spanish that we all must be redeemed
Well, I don't speak the language, but I know just what he means
Traffic flies on by
Storms are brewing in the sky
There're fortunes being made, and no one's being saved
So, take my hand, won't you take my hand
And lead me from this broken land
'Cause I don't understand, I don't understand
How we heal this broken land
I hear a bitter note
A knot inside my throat
This might be the last time I ever see this place
Tears and ashes fall
Something broken in us all
The only hope I see is in your face
So, take my hand, please, take my hand
I still need this broken land
So, help me understand, 'cause I don't understand
How we heal this broken land
Oh, take my hand, won't you take my hand
I can't leave this broken land
So, help me understand, 'cause I don't understand
How we heal this broken land
Can we heal this broken land
