"The House We Live In" lyrics

"The House We Live In"

I found a light between the cracks
I found a voice that shakes can still fight back
No weapon drawn can speak my peace
So now I'm calling off this war inside of me

The words that we speak, our love, become the house we live in
The fire inside has the power to build up our bridges
There is no right side of wrong
Maybe it's time we all
Listen

How many poplar trees have made a sound
When the branches bend and no one's around?
I'm not the only wave that shapes the shore
Riding the shoulders of all those who came before

The words that we speak, our love, become the house we live in
The fire inside has the power to build up our bridges
There is no right side of wrong
Maybe it's time we all answer the wake up call
And listen

The love and the hate we give becomes the house we live in
The love and the hate we give becomes the house we live in
The love and the hate we give becomes the house we live in
Answer the wake up call
And listen
