lyrics
Focus on the smaller things and the big stuff will fall into place
I ask you a simple question about your face
And you say: “I can’t see it”
Well, I guess that’s the case
So I’ll let you have your space and let the bigger things just fall into place
Focus. Focus but don’t concentrate
I don’t like this pace, I don’t like it
But I don’t wanna race or anything, just to be clear
Even though I’m near, I’m close
I’m so close I’m gonna finish
What? I don’t know
What am I close to?
Something new… something new
If each bite is new is it still the same fruit?
Can it be whole?
Can each bite have the whole soul in it?
I don’t like this
It feels like a race and just to be clear: I wanna win it
I’m near, I’m close, I’m so close to the end
But I ate each bite like the whole fruit so I’m content
Not sad to see it go
Not sad to see it go, no
That’s what I want but not what I feel
Take the wheel (I’m talking to me)
Walking feels slow
Walking feels slow and biking feels free x 3
