The Sound of Truth

We have all heard what we wanted to hear

Truth that sounds right to our ears

We have all heard what we wanted to hear

Truth that sounds right to our ears

But what wisdom is there within us

To live based on the feeling of our hearts

How many times has instinct let us down

Never to be thought through, never to be questioned

Say what you really mean

When your ambition calls you, calls you?

For what use is there in praying

If you will only hear what you want to hear?

We have all heard what we wanted to hear

Truth that sounds right to our ears

We speak of fighting to resist this world

But what about the battle within us?

If we have chosen to live against the grain

Then why are we all facing the same way?

There is no difference between us and them

If we all blindly seek truth from sentiments

We have all heard what we wanted to hear

Truth that sounds right to our ears

We have all heard what we wanted to hear

Truth that sounds right to our ears

We have all heard what we wanted to hear

Truth that sounds right to our ears
