Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Somebody posted something
Somebody disagreed
Somebody started typing things
They probably didn't mean
And now my heart is breaking
As I read every word
Sticks and stones are nothing
Compared to how this hurts
We all wanna know we matter
We all wanna know we're loved
More the same than we are different
Desperate just to be enough
But it's like we've all forgotten
How much we're all connected
When I read the comment section
I've been the harshest critic
I have bullied like a king
Tyrannical and comfortable
Here behind a screen
We all have our politics
But politics aside
All of us are only human
With a fragile heart inside
We all wanna know we matter
We all wanna know we're loved
More the same than we are different
Desperate just to be enough
But it's like we've all forgotten
How much we're all connected
When I read the comment section
Love your enemy
Be kind above all things
Imagine what this world could be
We all wanna know we matter
We all wanna know we're loved
More the same than we are different
Desperate just to be enough
Yeah, it's like we've all forgotten
How much we're all connected
