More Than What You See (Fundamental Attribution Error)

An acoustic folk-pop song built around empathy. Each verse tells a miniature story: a worker who’s late, a man who shouts in the street, a child who skips school. The surface invites judgment, but the chorus reveals hidden struggles and insists: “It’s more than what you see.” Acoustic guitar and subtle strings carry the arrangement, keeping the sound organic and intimate. The overall feel is gentle yet powerful, a reminder that our snap judgments rarely tell the whole story.

Lyrics

      
She’s late again, walking through the door,
whispers say she doesn’t care anymore.
But no one sees the night she cried alone,
working two jobs just to keep a home.
It’s more than what you see,
the story hides beneath.
Don’t lock the truth away,
in the words you choose to say.
We’re shadows, light, and mystery…
we’re more than what you see.
He lost his cool, shouting in the street,
people shake their heads, calling him weak.
But no one knows the weight he carries near,
a lifetime of silence and unspoken fear.
It’s more than what you see,
the story hides beneath.
Don’t lock the truth away,
in the words you choose to say.
We’re shadows, light, and mystery…
we’re more than what you see.
A boy skips school, dreams are running wild,
teachers say he’s just a reckless child.
But no one asks what’s keeping him away,
a hungry stomach and no bed to stay.
It’s more than what you see,
the story hides beneath.
Don’t lock the truth away,
in the words you choose to say.
We’re shadows, light, and mystery…
we’re more than what you see.
So take a breath before you judge the scene,
life is deeper than it might seem.
Every soul carries untold dreams…
we’re more than what you see.
