lyrics

In a far off place
What almost seems unreal
I used words like forever
Now I know better
Out here

It's getting hard to stop and see our place
The beauty in the little things everyday
I know it's there
It masks itself in such a mysterious way
I used to think things would fall into place
But I just can't explain

And I've had it up to here
Yeah I've had it up to here
When will we learn
We are one in the same
But we still fight
Over these tiny insignificant things
And I don't know if we'll change
No I don't know if we'll change

And one day
The clouds were so high
There was a haze of green and blue
And you opened your eyes
In the ghostly aurora
Into the flame
It's like someone reached out
And set fire to the sky


And I've had it up to here
Yeah I've had it up to here
When will we learn
We are one in the same
But we still fight
Over these tiny insignificant things
And I don't know if we'll change
No I don't know if we'll change

Nature is cruel
It doesn't care
As much as you think it should
So enjoy the view in front of you


And I've had it up to here
Yeah I've had it up to here
When will we learn
We are one in the same
But we still fight
Over these tiny insignificant things
And I don't know if we'll change
No I don't know if we'll change

We're so small
So small and frail in our tiny place
Amongst the beauty and the chaos
We're so small
Such small and tiny things
Amongst the beauty and the chaos
We're so small
