Powderfinger - How Far Have We Really Come?

Despite the miseries
And the lessons learned from history
The pattern still repeats
Never to surrender don't you ever repeat

How far have we really come?
Until the ones who are leading us
Make peace their resolution tonight
Make peace your resolution tonight

There's an arms race to be run
Building bigger better dagger headed bombs
So let's drink to the daughters and sons
Never to return to their mother's arms

For every battle lost and won are these the ones that we offer up?
