Breathe

The pace of life
Cuts like a knife
We run so hard, collect our scars, while racing time
Another turn
More daylight burned
Sometimes we stumble, one step back, more lessons learned
We've got to shift focus to
The things that mean the most you and me
It's time to take a big step back
And breathe

So many things
Accumulate
Perched on shelves, they feel compelled, to just sit and wait
And gather dust
And years and rust
They represent, the dreams once dreamt, would this be us?
We need to un-stow, and know
That it's ok to just let go
It's time to stop looking back
And breathe

Slow down, look around now
What the hurry here?
We let seconds turn minutes into hours
And then days turn your memories to years (gone by)

The daily grind
Wears down my mind
You wait for change, or rearrange only to find
Another song
Has come and gone
It's not too late, don't hesitate, no moment's wrong
It's time to reset our sails
Catch the wind and outrun the gales
Make each moment count, step back
And breathe

Just breathe

The daily grind
Wears down my mind

So just breathe

Yeah, just breathe
