[Verse 1] I been in a room full of people and still alone, phone in my hand and nobody home. Everybody's building something, nobody's building together — say the weather's getting rough — well, I ain't the weather. I got a little, you got a little, that's a lot. Nothing's too big, nothing's too small to be brought. Pull up a chair, there's a chair for you — there's a room, and the room ain't full. [Chorus] It takes a thousand wordz to picture what one of us can't say alone. A thousand wordz to picture a room that turns into a home. Give a little, get it back double — that's how it's always gone. A thousand wordz, a thousand wordz — nobody goes without. [Verse 2] Poet on the left, horn on the right, painter in the corner making something out of light. We don't ask you what you are, we ask you what you brought — and everything you brought, somebody caught. Resilience ain't a solo act, never was. Ain't a man alive made himself just because. Somebody held a door, somebody held a name, somebody said come on in out the rain. [Chorus] It takes a thousand wordz to picture what one of us can't say alone. A thousand wordz to picture a room that turns into a home. Give a little, get it back double — that's how it's always gone. A thousand wordz, a thousand wordz — nobody goes without. [Bridge] Reciprocate — what you give comes around. Reciprocate — put your ear to the ground. It ain't charity, it's a circle, it's a wheel — ain't nothing more radical than a room that's real. Isolation is a lie they sold us cheap. Unity's the only thing we get to keep. So pass it on, pass it on, pass it on… [Final Chorus — bigger] It takes a thousand wordz to picture what one of us can't say alone. A thousand wordz to picture a room that turns into a home. Give a little, get it back double — that's how it's always gone. A thousand wordz, a thousand wordz — nobody goes without. Nobody goes without. Nobody goes without.
