Description
This song was written while making casual observations at a park in Austin, Texas. It's a reflection of how we ignore the simple things that make life wonderful, and how we often take life for granted.
Lyrics
Above my eyes in a clear blue sky The sun is shining bright And down below where green grass grows I see people walk on by They're totally oblivious They don’t seem to care They don't stop to smell the roses They seem unaware As water falls down a black stone wall Like rain from the sky It makes a sound as it hits the ground But people walk on by They're totally oblivious They don’t seem to care They don't stop to smell the roses They seem unaware People take a look and see what surrounds you A perfect world this will never be Before it's too late we can come together Let’s try to make the most of it. They're totally oblivious They don’t seem to care They don't stop to smell the roses They seem unaware Up in my room I'm the prophet of doom But what do I know I'm just the same and I need to change Because I'm oblivious also We're totally oblivious We seem to pay no mind Let’s slow down and take a look around Who knows what we'll find We're totally oblivious We seem unaware We don't stop to smell the roses We don't even care
