lyrics

Dreams don't bother me.
Because they are only a figment of fiction's imagining.
But seems reality,
Is less of a matter of fact, more a product of what we think.
So what do you think?

Don't cry about the clouds.
Don't let conditions outside your control ever get you down.
Just try to smile somehow.
Watch your concern melt away, and your day brighten all around.
Take you off the ground.

It's funny we see most everything as universal truth.
When most of what we think we know is based on point of view.
Take a little time to free up your mind and you'll find it's all subjective.
Troubles come but then they go so all we really need is perspective.

The grass is always green,
When you begin to read all of those lines hidden in between.
In fact, all that is seen,
Is just approximations our minds make when the light convenes.
See what I mean?

It's funny we see most everything as universal truth.
When most of what we think we know is based on point of view.
Take a little time to free up your mind and you'll find it's all subjective.
Troubles come but then they go so all we really need is perspective.

It's funny we see most everything as universal truth.
When most of what we think we know is based on point of view.
Take a little time to free up your mind and you'll find it's all subjective.
Troubles come but then they go so all we really need is perspective.
