about

*This one's about how someone can get so caught up in the bad parts of life, such as the grind of the day-to-day rut, their job, money, politics, etc. And they forget to stop and take some time to enjoy the better things like friends, family, good times, or even simple views or sounds of the outside world they may haven't noticed before. There's a lot in life to be discovered and we need to open our eyes, slow down, and not take it for granted.

lyrics

With all the beautiful things in life covered by snow
You can't live in the moment, can't go with the flow
We work all day and night to make things right but most will never know
How to let go!

The blindfold's getting tighter the blind will never see
You won't get anywhere if you don't believe;
You take your life for granted, your friends for granted, your family for granted.
Fucking let go!

Take some time to take a look at the city from this place
It's a beautiful picture, a soft spoken canvas
And you'll spend your whole life passing it by like it was never there
You're never fucking there
take some time to take a look at the city from this place
It's a beautiful picture, a soft spoken canvas
And you'll spend your whole life passing it by like it was never there
You're everything, you're going nowhere.
