lyrics

I can see it in your eyes
It’s something I can’t find in anyone
I’ve given all my time
Feeling so confined, I’ll give it up

And I know that everything is impermanently changing all the time
And it’s hard to remember that everything is out there for me
And it’s not so sad all the time

It’s not so sad all the time

It’s fairly hard to see
Have everything I need, it’s my meditation
I know I need to breathe
When I’m caught in all my doubt and reservations

‘Cause I know that everything is impermanently changing all the time
And it’s hard to remember that everything is out there for me
And it’s not so sad all the time

It’s not so sad all the time
It’s not so sad all the time
It’s not so sad all the time
It’s not so sad all the time
