Everyone I see around here
Could they be people that I know?
And what if everything we found here
Was more than what we've been told?
I think we waited too long
Now it's time to see the truth
It isn't just me and you
And everything we thought we knew
On and on we go
We're all holding on to this blanket we know
Maybe we should live more truly here
And you'll see
There's more to life
Because we belong to something
We're strangers to each other
But closer than we think we are
It's late at night
And we're dreaming here forever
So let's just come together
Maybe, just maybe if we're honest
We can see the truth and all of the reason why shit
So many times I think of positions that I'm in
Like the time I dropped up out of college
Now I'm tryna fill my soul and tryna fill my wallet
A freak and a geek, guess you could call me childish
Looking for a road that'll lead 'em back to my shit
And have the entire globe singing every word to my shit
On and on we go
We're all holding on to this blanket we know
Maybe we should live more truly here
And you'll see
There's more to life
Because we belong to something
We're strangers to each other
But closer than we think we are
It's late at night
And we're dreaming here forever
So let's just come together
There's more to life
Because we belong to something
We're strangers to each other
But closer than we think we are
It's late at night
And we're dreaming here forever
So let's just come together
See who we just really are
Say this blanket represents all the
Matter and energy in the universe, okay?
You, me, everything
Nothing's been left out, alright?
All the particles, everything, exactly, this is everything, okay?
Let's just say that this is me, right?
And I'm, what, sixty-odd years old and
Wearing a grey suit, blah, blah, blah
And let's say over here, this is you
And you're, I don't know, you're twenty-
One, you've got dark hair, etcetera
And over here, this is the Eiffel Tower, right?
It's Paris
And this is a war, and this is a museum
And this is a disease, and this is an orgasm
And this is a hamburger
Everything is the same, even if it's different
Exactly, but everyday mind forgets this
We think everything is separate, limited
"I'm over here and you're over there"
Which is true, but it's not the whole truth
Because we're all connected
Because we are connected
We need to learn how to see the blanket truth all the time
