about

This song was born to dispel the notion held by some that kindness and compassion are 'Strange.'

lyrics

Drown out the stars at night
Just to wake up with the sun
We work away our lives
Comb our hair like everyone

If love could be the light
We wouldn't have to run
Take our leisure in the day
Let the evening come undone

All I want to see is a little change
‘Cause compassionate is synonymous with strange

Rise early every day
Take the bus and don’t be late
We seem a little weary
But really we're okay

We make lust and call it love
At the barrel of a gun
We work for dead-end pay
Never stop to see the sun

All I want to see is a little change
‘Cause compassionate is synonymous with strange

Oh think of all that could be
See the sun through the leaves

Can we love each other
Before we're out of time
