You can’t kill your way to peace
But you can burn your effigies
You can’t bring back the deceased
But you can write them eulogies
You can’t avoid all your friends
But you can embrace your enemies
You can’t stop the ascent
But you can curb their zealotry
You can’t hide your wounds and scars
But you can go to therapy
You can’t escape or run that far
But you can welcome refugees
You can’t get back what you’ve lost
But you can spend efficiently
You can’t redraw your card
But you can make a new treaty
You can’t go back and restart
But you can change the melody
You can’t unbreak my damaged heart
But you can still kiss me
