'Though we might hate to admit it
There are always two sides to every story

Find yourself in the gutter in a lonely part of town
Where death waits in the darkness
With a weapon to cut some stranger down
Sleeping with an empty bottle

He's a sad and an empty hearted man
All he needs is a job
And a little respect
So, he can get out while he can

We always need to hear both sides of the story
Both sides of the story

A neighborhood peace is shattered
It's the middle of the night
Young faces hide in the shadows
While they watch their mother and father fight

He says she's been unfaithful
She says her love for him has gone
And the brother shrugs to his sister and says
"Looks like it's just us from now on"

We always need to hear both sides of the story
We need to hear both sides of the story

And the lights are all on
The world is watching now
People looking for truth
We must not fail them now

Be sure, before we close our eyes
Don't walk away from here
'Til you hear both sides
No, no, no, no

Here we are all gathered
In what seems to be the center of the storm
Neighbors once friendly
Now stand each side of the line that has been drawn

They've been fighting here for years
But, now there's killing on the streets
While small coffins are lined up sadly
Now united in defeat

We always need to hear both sides of the story

And the lights are all on
The world is watching now
People looking for truth
We must not fail them now

Be sure, before we close our eyes
Don't walk away from here
'Til you see both sides
No, no, no, no, no, no

White man turns the corner
Finds himself within a different world
Ghetto kid grabs his shoulder
Throws him up against the wall

He says, would you respect me
If I didn't have this gun
'Cos without it, I don't get it
And that's why I carry one

We always need to hear both sides of the story
Both sides of the story
Oh, both sides of the story
Yes, both sides of the story

Oh, both sides of the story
Both sides of the story
Both sides of the story
Both sides, both sides of the story

Both sides of the story
Both sides of the story, Yeah, yeah
Both sides of the story
Both sides, both sides of the story

Both sides of the story
Both sides of the story
Both sides of the story
Must hear both sides of the story
