Silence pt. 1 (when we say “we”)

Not in my lifetime I know, I know
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime I know, I know, I know
Not in my lifetime

One, two, three, four, one, two, let you hear it
Three, four, one, feel it and hear it
Three, four, two, feel it and hear it
Three, four, five, one, two, three
I am wrapped within you
(One, two, three, four, one, two, let you hear it)
I spread my roots into all your limbs
(Three, four, one, feel it and hear it)
And my voice all around you
(Three, four, two, feel it and be it)
Cells vibrating without and within
(Three, four, five, one, two, three)

Not in my lifetime I know, I know (Silence)
Not in my lifetime (Silence)
Not in my lifetime I know, I know (Silence)
Not in my lifetime

There's a secret that I keep
When you think that I am weeping
I am one drop in the ocean
I am one fist of many fingers (Silence)
Why would I claim my little piece of the pie?
She said change yourself to change the world
And I am gonna try (Silence)

One, two, three, four, one, two, let you hear it
Three, four, one, feel it and hear it
Three, four, two, feel it and be it
Three, four, five, one, two, three
I am wrapped within you
(One, two, three, four, one, two, let you hear it)
I spread my roots into all your limbs
(Three, four, one, feel it and hear it)
And my voice all around you
(Three, four, two, feel it and be it)
Cells vibrating without and within
(Three, four, five, one, two, three)

There's a secret that I keep
When you think that I am weeping
It's the future that I'll shape
The changing in the feelings
