Lyrics Everything Is Never As It Seems - Foreign Figures

I took a walk
And saw a tree
With roots above
And leaves beneath
Down to the top
I dug to see
If all the stars
Lay underneath

A ticking clock
From 4 to 3
Fast forwarding
Through history
Tomorrow passed
So I could see
That yesterday's
In front of me

'Cause everything is never as it seems
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Allegiance I
Pledge to thee
To guard your walls
From other's dreams
While all the while
Our children sing
"We're all the same
Let freedom ring!"

And could it be
We complicate
Just what love is
Cause we're afraid
To lose our faith
Our family
Eternity
Reality

'Cause everything is never as it seems
'Cause everything is never as it seems

I tripped and fell
Through gravity
Up to the floor
Goodbye weird tree
I left the stars
They called to me
Please take a walk
And you might see

That everything is never as it seems
Yeah, everything is never as it seems
'Cause everything is never as it seems
