about

"We Listened" by Paul Saker-Norrish (2017)

lyrics

Now I can see between the common fouls,
out here we're human
What was expressed between the words themselves,
in here they're useless
Yet while we were lost in conversation
You invited me in to share the riches where the joy and fear begin

And we listened

The silence deepens as the space expands
inside this room and
inside the skin we're in a world demands
our attention
And when we release our expectations
We're invited in to share the riches where the joy and fear begin

And if we listen

We may hear that you and I are more alike than the story we told
we may see the common force behind this life that we know
And we may find the time to cultivate
the strength to let go

So now I can see beyond the common fouls
for here we're human
What was expressed beyond the words themselves
Down here they're useless
Yet while we were lost in conversation
You invited me in to share the riches where the joy and fear begin

And if we listen

We may hear that you and I are more alike than the story we told
we may see the common force behind this life that we know
And we may find the time to cultivate
the strength to let go

Of the belief the game's a zero sum to divide as we're told
Of the identity we wrapped so tight, but left us so cold
Of the idea that we are anything but all pieces of one whole
