Torn Apart Lyrics
A naked eye conspires with fear
To form an idea
So destructive and insincere
Reared in the mind
But outside you'll find
That nature does not align
You see,
There's more variation, more variation, there's more within populations
Variation, more variation than between populations
Ah for too many years
A myth perseveres
The scars and the souvenirs
Defined by your skin
Forget we share kin
We're torn apart
It feels as though we're sinking
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
You see,
There's more variation, more variation, there's more within populations
Variation, more variation than between populations
Look back to the past
We hail from one caste
This division will not last
Defined by your skin
Forget we share kin
We're torn apart
It feels as though we're sinking
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
Sinking
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
Sinking
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
Sinking
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
Sinking
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
Sinking
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
To form an idea
So destructive and insincere
But outside you'll find
That nature does not align
There's more variation, more variation, there's more within populations
Variation, more variation than between populations
A myth perseveres
The scars and the souvenirs
Forget we share kin
We're torn apart
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
There's more variation, more variation, there's more within populations
Variation, more variation than between populations
We hail from one caste
This division will not last
Forget we share kin
We're torn apart
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
Sinking
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
Sinking
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves
Sinking
I don't know how we'll get to shore again
Sinking, we'll surface through the waves

Pure brilliance...one of their best :-).
I think it's about racism and the hope to overcome it one day. Just my two cents ;-)
