Transparency - Altars

Why should I try to hide what’s held inside?

Why should we be afraid of each other’s beliefs?

It’s been so long and its taking its toll

The fear of judgment has caused us to lose control

Why should you be above somebody else?

(Somebody else)

I wonder if you’re even being honest with yourself

It’s been so long and your lies have taken hold

(They're taking hold)

The fear of losing your power is in control

And I wonder what this world could be

If we all lived transparently

Like a window for the world to see

That deep down we are all the same breed

A need for life

A need for love

A need to wake up and see the sun above

Why can’t this world see?

There’s nothing different between you and me?

A need for life

A need for love

A need to wake up and see the sun above

Why can’t this world see?

There’s nothing different between you and me?

Transparency

So the world can see

We are all the same breed

Why should I try to hide what’s held inside?

Why should we be afraid of each other’s beliefs?

It’s been so long and its taking its toll

The fear of judgment has caused us to lose control

Why should you be above somebody else?

(Somebody else)

I wonder if you’re even being honest with yourself

It’s been so long and your lies have taken hold

(They're taking hold)

The fear of losing your power is in control

And I wonder what this world could be

If we all lived transparently

Like a window for the world to see

That deep down we are all the same breed
