Common (feat. Brandi Carlile)

I've been trying to carry on

But I'm crushed under the weight

Of the world where I belong

But I don't feel at home, yeah

When it's over, when it's done

When we're standing at the gates

Will we see that all along

We're a different kind of same?

How do we get to the bottom of this

When we're sitting on the top?

Hey, the people they tell me it's just how it is

Like it's never gonna stop

But we got way too much in common

So what's the point in fighting?

We got way too many problems

If I'm being honest

I don't know what God is

'Cause we got way too much in common

Way too much in common

I breathe it in my lungs

I've seen it in the flesh

If all we need is love

How the hell did we forget?

How do we get to the bottom of this

When we're sitting on the top?

People they tell me it's just how it is

Like it's never gonna stop

We got way too much in common

So what's the point in fighting?

We got way too many problems

If I'm being honest

I don't know what God is

We got way too much in common

Oh, maybe we forgot it

With everybody talkin'

Ain't nobody listenin'

I don't know what God is

'Cause we got way too much in common

Oh, we got way too much in common

So what's the point in fighting?

We got way too many problems

If I'm being honest

I don't know what God is

'Cause we got way too much in common

Oh, but maybe we forgot it

With everybody talkin'

Ain't nobody listenin'

I don't know what God is

But we got way too much in common

Way too much in common

Oh, ain't nobody listenin'
