about

This is a song about understanding that a deeper notion of the truth can be found when two people share their own. Lately, I find myself wondering just how I know the things that I know. Whose truths do we accept as the gospel, whose do we take with grains of salt? Do we trust ourselves to parse through all of the information accessible to us in order to establish an unbiased opinion? The answers remain to be seen, though one things remains clear: we come to greater understandings of truth when we listen to each other.

I've only got one mind, and you've only got one too, but when we put the two together we get closer to the truth.

lyrics

I don't believe in things I can't see
But just because I can't see them
Doesn't mean they're not there

It's just my state of mind
It's just my point of view
Just 'cause I think it's right
That doesn't mean it's true
I've only got one mind
You've only got one too
But when we put the two together
We get closer to the truth

I never trust in something I can't feel
You say there are other ways that something can be real

It's just my state of mind
It's just my point of view
Just 'cause I think it's right
That doesn't mean it's true
I've only got one mind
You've only got one too
But when we put the two together
We get closer to the truth

Do you stop to realize
We're getting smaller all the time
Did you ever recognize
The only thing that we have in this life is time

It's just my state of mind
It's just my point of view
Just 'cause I think it's right
That doesn't mean it's true
I've only got one mind
You've only got one too
But when we put the two together
We get closer to the truth
