one - arkive lyrics

[jimmy carter sample]
in a nation that was proud of hard work, strong families, close-knit communities, and our faith in god, too many of us now tend to worship self-indulgence and consumption. human ident-ty is no longer defined by what one does, but by what one owns. but we’ve discovered that owning things and consuming things does not satisfy our longing for meaning. we’ve learned that piling up material goods cannot fill the emptiness of lives which have no confidence or purpose. there is a growing disrespect for government and for churches and for schools, the news media, and other inst-tutions. this is not a message of happiness or re-ssurance, but it is the truth and it is a warning

we all live the same lives
through different eyes
all our stories have been told
we’re one
and the sum of our parts is fading away
as we arise to the calling of the ether of time
and all the stars set in our eyes
like i wove a path that we can never wash our hands of
the memory of a stolen answer
find a way to pull me out again
i know it’s not too late
(give me a taste of a future that’s made for us)
we know it’s not too late to start it all again
don’t hang suspended, fearing the light of the flame
we know it creeps towards us, but watching it won’t change a thing
(we all live the same)
fire is catching and we’ll all burn the same
(we all live the same lives)
fire is catching and we’ll all burn the same
(through different eyes)
fire is catching and we’ll all burn the same
(we all live that way)
fire is catching and we’ll all go up in flames
you’re the morning that’s shining
starting to fill me
up with light
