We had to learn what was right from light
Who was our guide but the stars in the night sky
We will ignite when the tears of the falling sun
Teach us what it means to be human
And when we hear something wrong
The song that plays on had the answers all along
Lies are long gone
Cause we know there’s a lasting truth
That guides us every minute, every second
Singing,
“Heyo just calm down and lay low
Pay no attention to what you may know”
Pray, “Lord, (ooh) I will never be alone, you are always with me”
Heyo, nah do it because I say so
Make yourself forget your bankroll
Pray, “Lord, yeah I know in my heart you are always with me”
A crown of thorns we adorn
Torn and left scorned from the minute we are born
Mourning and forlorn
We get to choose to be free or die
Under the weight of it’s tempting roses
If, when you close your eyes, you become
One with everything under the sun
Loved and undone
You will see there’s a lasting light
That guides us every minute, every second
Singing
“Heyo just calm down and lay low
Pay no attention to what you may know”
Pray, “Lord, (ooh) I will never be alone, you are always with me”
Heyo, nah do it because I say so
Make yourself forget your bankroll
Pray, “Lord, yeah I know in my heart you are always with me”
We love and we lose
Not something you can refuse
But even when the forest burns
We see the birth of a thousand seedlings
We throw our hands to the sky
Even if we don’t know why
You can see there’s a lasting love
That guides us every minute, every second
Singing,
“Heyo, you are not alone
You are not alone
You are not alone
I am always with you
You are not alone
You are not alone
You are not alone
I am always with you
It’s easy to miss when you’re flying fast
Easy to get when you try and ask one on one,
“What’s the secret to healing, what’s the meaning,
Can you hear me”
Yeah
All along you’ve been carried through
Trials that you thought would bury you
The Great Spirit of the Universe guided you
Every minute, every second
Singing,
“Heyo just calm down and lay low
Pay no attention to what you may know”
Pray, “Lord, (ooh) I will never be alone, you are always with me”
Heyo, nah do it because I say so
Make yourself forget your bankroll
Pray, “Lord, yeah I know in my heart you are always with me”
Yeah I know in my heart you are always with me
