The Blanket Truth

Jared Evan

[Verse 1]
Everyone I see around here, could they be people that I know?
And what if everything we found here
Was more than what we've been told?
I think we've waited too long, now it's time to see the truth
It isn't just me and you, and everything we thought we knew

[Pre-Chorus]
On and on we go
We're all holding onto this blanket we know
Maybe we should love more truly here
And you'll see

[Chorus]
There's more to life because we belong to something
We're strangers to each other
But closer than we think we are
It's late at night and we're dreaming here forever
So let's just come together

[Verse 2]
Maybe, just maybe if we're honest
We can see the truth and all of the reason-why shit
So many times I think of positions that I'm in
Like the time I dropped up outta college
Now I'm trying to fill my soul ain't trying to fill my wallet
A freak and a geak, guess you can call me Childish
Looking for a road that'll lead em back to my shit
And have the entire globe singing every word to my shit

[Pre-Chorus]
On and on we go
We're all holding onto this blanket we know
Maybe we should love more truly here
And you'll see

[Chorus]
There's more to life because we belong to something
We're strangers to each other
But closer than we think we are
It's late at night and we're dreaming here forever
So let's just come together

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
There's more to life because we belong to something
We're strangers to each other
But closer than we think we are
It's late at night and we're dreaming here forever
So let's just come together
See who we just really are

[Instrumental II]

[Outro/Dialogue]
Say this blanket represents all the matter and energy in the universe
Ok, you, me, everything, nothing's been left out
Right, all the particles and everything, exactly
This is everything, ok
Let's just say, that this is me, right, and I'm what?
60 odd years old and wearing a grey suit, blah, blah, blah...
And let's say over here, this is you, and you're, I dunno?
You're 21, you've got dark hair, etc...
And over here, this is the Eiffel Tower, right, this is Paris
And this is a war and this is a museum and this is a disease and this is an orgasm and this is a hamburger
(Everything is the same even if it's different?)
Exactly!
But our everyday mind forgets this, we think everything is separate, limited
I'm over here and you're over there, which is true
But it's not the whole truth
Because we're all connected
Because we are connected
We need to learn how to see The Blanket Truth all the time
