lyrics

It’s too late and we can’t sleep
Too many stories at our feet
Too many lives are on repeat
And we must show them

We’ve been paralyzed by fear
Paralyzed for many years
Held hostage by the lies
They have told us

Everybody sees the problems
But nobody wants to solve them

Now’s not the time to look the other way
Now’s not the time to put our love away
There’s a glorious truth, a glorious news
That must be told, must be shown

Are we ever gonna lead
Are we ever gonna see
Or are we only gonna dream of
The way things ought to be

We can’t expect to be received
We can’t expect to be believed
But we can tell the truth of love
And invite the world to breathe

Now’s not the time to look the other way
Now’s not the time to put our love away
There’s a glorious truth, a glorious news
That must be told, must be shown
