It's funny the things we can notice when we're tuned in. When we're open, paying attention to what's happening around us and reflecting upon it.
I've been listening to The Once's new album since it was released two years ago. For some reason, it was only yesterday as I was singing along that I really tuned into the lyrics and meaning of a particular song.
We Are All Running is a beautifully simple song about togetherness, empathy and hope. I'm not going to go into a lot of detail. The song really says it all.
Do you believe in faith? That we've been on the same path
It's taken miles to make it here And in the end it seems so clear
We are, We are all running, We are all running the same race
We are, We are all going, We are all going to the same place
How long have you been on this road? Why do you carry such a heavy load?
Stay a while and easy your mind the truth is rare and hard to find
We are, We are all running, We are all running the same race
We are, We are all going, We are all going to the same place
Long is the road we travel on hard is the shoulder we cry upon
Dark is the raid before the dawn The brightest morning is still to come
We are all running, We are all running the same race
We are, We are all going, We are all going to the same place
We are, We are all running, We are all running the same race
