Lyrics

Don’t squint your eyes
Keep them wide
It’s a panoramic view
Five pictures across
You will get lost
When your camera is stuck in zoom
The optic nerve
Does not serve
To show the worth of it all
My mouth can’t make to speak
My hand can’t make to draw
If it doesn’t seem like much
Maybe you’re not looking hard enough
If it isn’t what you thought you’d have
What world are you looking at?
You can’t compensate
For your legs
Let the chair keep you off your feet
The booze won’t make you strong
The TV won’t make you complete
By the order of events, I know
I’m somewhere just past the start
I’m striding every mile
With all four chambers of my heart
If it doesn’t seem like much
Maybe you’re not looking hard enough
If it isn’t what you thought you’d have
What world are you looking at?
Mine eyes have seen the glory
That you cannot reason away
My ears have heard the beauty
Of the perfect turn of phrase
If I could write like that
If I could speak like that
If it doesn’t seem like much
Maybe you’re not looking hard enough
If it isn’t what you thought you’d have
What world are you looking at?
Don’t squint your eyes
Keep them wide
It’s a panoramic view
Five pictures across
You will get lost
When your camera is stuck in zoom
