In this world
There's a space that's growing further every day
Where palace walls blockdesperate calls
And plant the seed of such dismay
It's the fire that fuels the mobs
Between the “have's” and the “have not's”
It's the power that be that
Hold the line
This wall
This wedge built by design
Open up the doors and look outside
You can't deny it
Pick up the pace or get left behind
This is the great divide
It's getting further now
More and more dropping out
It's happening right now
Each and every day
Watch it all come apart
No stopping what they start
Oh yeah here we are
This is the great divide
From broken homes to golden thrones
There's this universe between
What someone posses
Other's at best
Will only see in magazines
It's pretty grim you sink or swim
If that's what you've been dealt
It's dog eat dog
When money's god
Your forced to ratchet it up your belt
Open up the doors and look outside
You can't deny it
Pick up the pace or get left behind
This is the great divide
Who is going to make it across
Who will gain from some others loss
Walk the plank and fall right off
It's the nature of the game
Men in suits distort the truth
In this zone of who is who
Oh yeah here we are this is the great divide
