[Verse 1]
Bbm
Dancing on the crumbling precipice
The rocks are coming loose just at the edge
           Db
Are we laughing? Are we crying?
          Eb5
Are we drowning? Are we dead?
Or is it all a dream?
Bbm
   The bombs are getting closer everyday
"That can never happen here" we used to say
               Db
Have these wars  come to our doorstep?
           Eb5
Has this moment finally come?
Or is it all a dream?
Bbm           Gb
   Are we not good enough?

[Chorus]
           Ab
Are we not brave enough?
       Bbm
Is the violence in our nature
         Db
just the image of our maker?
           Gb
Are we not good enough?
           Ab
Are we not brave enough?
   Bbm
To become something greater
         Db
Than the violence in our nature?
           Gb          Ab
Are we not good, good enough
Or is it all a dream?

[Verse 2]
Bbm     Bbm
   To a predetermined fate are we condemned
Or maybe we're a book without an end
          Db
We're not stories, we're not actors
           Eb5
We're awake   and in control
And this is not a dream
Bbm
   So can we break this mold
And set in motion something new
           Db
Forgetting what we know
      Eb5
An evolution overdue
             Db
Fight the current
Pull the ripcord
     Eb5
Get away!
           Gb
Are we not good enough?

[Chorus]
           Ab
Are we not brave enough?
       Bbm
Is the violence in our nature
         Db
just the image of our maker?
           Gb
Are we not good enough?
           Ab
Are we not brave enough?
     Bbm
To become something greater
         Db
Than the violence in our nature?
           Gb          Ab
Are we not good, good enough

[Bridge]
Bbm Ab
      We travel back to what we take
                                Bbm
We need a storm, let's pray for rain now
   Gb                   Ab
To wash these roads away
Let's get off track and wander far
                             Bbm
Same roads lead to same destinations
       Gb               Ab
Follow nothing but your heart
We're talking in our sleep
                         Bbm
And sleeping through our lives
                Gb                    Bbm
We dream of the places where we never die
                 Gb                   Bbm
We step from our shadows and into the light

[Pre-Chorus]
           Gb
Are we not good enough?

[Chorus]
           Ab
Are we not brave enough?
       Bbm
Is the violence in our nature
         Db
just the image of our maker?
           Gb
Are we not good enough?
           Ab
Are we not brave enough?
     Bbm
To become something greater
         Db
Than the violence in our nature?
           Gb    Ab
Are we not good enough?

[Outro]
           Bbm    Db
Are we not brave enough?
       Gb          Ab
We not good, good enough?
                      Bbm
Or was it all a dream?
