Arthur Alligood - Foolishness of Man Lyrics

Hey, you look different, different from me
I'll find a category and label you with ease
Keep my nose up in the air, my head down in the sand
Ah, my willful ignorance, the foolishness of man

It's us vs. them, the good guys against the bad
The bad ones are out of country or somehwere across town
Outta sigh, outta heart we'd rather judge than understand
We're doctors plagued by blindness the foolishness of man

Where went all the wisdom? When did our stomachs turn?
Love feels like a lesson... we were never willing to learn

When fear became our fortress, pride became our friend
All the sages tried to warn us as we raised up walls within
Truth she keeps on calling to set the captives free
A whisper in the darkness, a light so scarcely seen
I stand here on the shoreline I will take the portage path
'Cause only love will end this hatred: the foolishness of man
