It's so hard to understand just where you're coming from
To try to see things from a different point of view
I'm trying and not to pigeonhole or simply write you off
But it's so much simpler if the parody is true
It's so easy to believe it's really you
I refuse to buy into this tired narrative
That anyone who doesn't run with me is a fool
And I believe together we can build a better a bridge
That spins the thread that starts connecting me to you
I think of towing party lines across the great divide
Sick of human hearts reduced to red or blue
There'll all still locked at times by lots of you, our cardboard cut-out lives
But it's so much simpler if the parody is true
It's so easy to believe it's really you
It's so easy to believe it's really you
I refuse to buy into this tired narrative
That anyone who doesn't run with me is a fool
And I believe together we can build a better a bridge
That spins the thread that starts connecting me to you
Why's it so hard to just remember
That you have a past, a face, a heart, a name?
Oh, it's so hard to just remember, yeah
That we are as different than we are the same
But I have to try
I have to try
