LYRICS [Intro] I remember when your neighbors knew your name When helping somebody wasn't something to explain Before we learned to keep our distance Before we treated everybody with indifference [Verse 1] Now answers find us before the question does Convictions borrowed from people we don't even trust Any question means you're on your own Much easier just to believe whatever you've been told Repeat the words that hide us within the crowd You don't really think that, do you? I have my doubts [Pre-Chorus] And somewhere along the way we lost the thread We started listening to what somebody said Instead of thinking with our own mind We chose what to believe, but we forgot to ask why [Chorus] What happened to us, where did we turn? What did we trade for the things that we earned? Maybe the answer is closer than we thought Maybe we're only lost in the things we forgot [Verse 2] Now people get nervous when you say hello how has common courtesy become unknown We have more ways to talk than ever But somehow we understand each other less together We know everybody's business from a screen But don't know what the person next to us might need [Pre-Chorus 2] Maybe that's where we begin again Treating strangers like one of our friends Maybe kindness doesn't need a reason Maybe showing up is how we change the season [Chorus] What happened to us, where did we turn? What did we trade for the things that we earned? Maybe the answer is closer than we thought Maybe we're only lost in the things we forgot [Bridge] [Beat drops, acoustic guitar and hand percussion] One more hello One more open door One more minute Than we gave before [Final Chorus] What happened to us, where did we turn? Maybe there's still something left to relearn Maybe the answer is closer than we thought Maybe we're found in the things we forgot [Outro]
