Equaliser lyrics

If you were to die today
The earth would keep its orbit
The birds would still fly south
The redwoods would grow taller
And the tide would come unchanged

Carbon and water
Skin, muscle, bone
That is all we are
And you are like us
Insignificant

[guitar solo]

Take any side that you like
The universe doesn't care
History will forget it
And if you take a step back
You'll see that they're all the same

An ant will never move a mountain
And that's what you are to my beliefs
And I know I am the same to yours
Neither is more valid or worthy
Still you hate me for what I hold dear
Yet say I can't do the same to you
Because you declared yourself the truth

[dual guitar solo]

Ashes to ashes
And dust back to dust
We rejoin the earth
And in centuries future
Who could tell us apart

Shall we persist in our fight 
This waste of both of our time
Or will you just accept that
There's more than one point of view
For all your talk of freedom
You are loath to give it out
To anyone not like you

[guitar solo]

If I were to die today
The earth would keep its orbit
The birds would still fly south
The redwoods would grow taller
And the tide would come unchanged

Carbon and water
Skin, muscle, bone
That is all they are
And I am like them
Insignificant
