    Default Escape the Truth

    Listen to the sound
    Of the leaves hitting the ground
    And the hope that fills our souls
    When we know that we arnt alone


    We are one
    We are one
    We are one
    We are one


    I've been thinking of the sky
    I've been thinking of the lies
    I've been thinking of the hope
    The hope I feel inside
    But now I see this world bleed
    Now I see it on it's knees
    Asking for forgiveness
    Will it ever come
    Will it ever come
    "Chorus"
    We are connected
    By the world
    We are connected
    By the sky
    We are one
    We are everything
    We are combined
    By the knees
    We all face this together
    We all face this together
    And there's nothing we can do
    There's nothing we can do
    To escape the truth


    I wake up in the evening
    Never really had a reason
    To get up any earlier
    Walked down to the street
    Found my check within reach
    I knew I had everything
    I didn't care about a thing
    No one ever dreams
    Cause the world is now given
    All that it needs
    "Chorus"
    We are connected
    By the world
    We are connected
    By the sky
    We are one
    We are everything
    We are combined
    By the knees
    We all face this together
    We all face this together
    And there's nothing we can do
    There's nothing we can do
    To escape the truth


    Listen
    Listen
    To the sound
    Of the leaves falling down
    Find your self
    Find your self
    In the leaves that fall down
    Their falling to the ground
    Wake up
    We're in this together
    We're in this together
    "Chorus"
    We are connected
    By the world
    We are connected
    By the sky
    We are one
    We are everything
    We are combined
    By the knees
    We all face this together
    We all face this together
    And there's nothing we can do
    There's nothing we can do
    To escape the truth
    There is not enough space or time to truly let the song unwind

    That's EXACTLY what I was thinking. Not a bad band to relate it to either, in my opinion. Take it as a compliment John! lol

    The verses flow well but the chorus is uninspiring. I really like the following line: "No one ever dreams /Cause the world is now given /All that it needs"
