Lyrics
We sing the same song you and I.
With lead feet in deep water
We cry out to live or die.
Instead we tread in waves to stay alive.
Our heads above the grave but
ThereÂ's no one to save us this time.
So I will sing and you will hear me,
And join the chorus so we can start again.
Our voices raised are flawed but
Freeing our souls so we can change and start again.
My lifeÂ's a painting IÂ've done blind.
With each brush stroke youÂ'll watch me
Blur every solid line.
Over this canvas I have stood
With no one left beside me,
No one to decide if itÂ's good.
So I will sing and you will hear me,
And join the chorus so we can start again.
Our voices raised are flawed but
Freeing our souls so we can change and start again.
