Lyrics

Can the name of Jesus roll off of your tongue like an angels song that's never been sung?

Can anybody call you their own?

Do you hope to die with your eyes open wide and your friends and family gathered by your side

or would you prefer to be alone?



Everybody I know trying to hide something that already shows

Everything that they've been through can be seen in all they say and all they do



Will you not listen to a single thing that's sung by a man who just can't sing

even if his heart is open wide?

Did you sit right there upon that fence and keep yourself at a safe distance

when they tried to make you take sides?



Remember when you were small, oh the wonder of it all

Every day a little Christmas morning

But now the daily grind takes up all your time

Don't you forget just who you are



Did you think that I was going to sing this verse real sweet to you and maybe break the curse of shadow that's been draped across your soul?

Well maybe I will but even then, still, you gotta believe that the sum of the parts does not equal the whole



Oh yeah

Everybody I know

No use in hiding

Might as well speak your mind

Show your feelings

Cuz we all know

Everybody already knows
