Lyrics
I'm sure this was not your intention
But surely you had to have known
The consequences of your actions
Condemning what you don't condone
Instead of espousing the hatred
For a faith that you don't understand
Let's try something new
Let's take a step back,
Let's just take a step back
Chorus
Nobody's crazy
Nobody's wrong
They're living the life they've known all along
We don't have to subscribe
We don't have to believe
But unrest will be what we achieve
If we don't live from love
It's easy to write someone off
Whose philosophies differ from ours
When we don't even question the hypocrisy
Of our dogma and what's inside us
So if we could work on acceptance
And lift our heads up to the sun
Cause hurting each other is hurting ourselves
In this life, because we are All One
We are All One
Chorus
Nobody's crazy
Nobody's wrong
They're living the life they've known all along
We don't have to subscribe
We don't have to believe
But unrest will be what we achieve
If we don't live from love
Don't live from love
Don't live from love
