The world needs to slow down.

I cleared my dues, put out the fires,
And set out on an empty road.

I kept the feeling, pulled the wires,
I kept on going without a load.

And so I came to gaze upon these times,
I wondered what went wrong.

How did we spend all our lives,
Why does everyone keep moving along.

We can never understand well enough,
Its living thats easy, life is tough.

We are all in a hurry to see,
We keep thinking of what will be,
We never live in the moment of Now,
We waste our lives and wonder how.

As I journeyed along, I saw a tree,
It gave fruit and a shade to sleep,

It moved with life, but was never free,
Even it's fruits it wouldn't keep.

That was when I realized the simple truth,
I realized what went wrong.

In this freedom of our only youth,
We never stand, we keep moving along.

We can never understand well enough,
Its living thats easy, life is tough.

We are all in a hurry to see,
We keep thinking of what will be,
We never live in the moment of Now,
We waste our lives and wonder how.

All of us never have a moment to lose,
We never take time to see a star.

Keeping time is our usual excuse,
We never look at life from afar.

There's more to life than constant motion,
We fail to appreciate each moment.

We keep getting lost in all this commotion,
And we keep waiting for the next event.

We can never understand well enough,
Its living thats easy, life is tough.

We are all in a hurry to see,
We keep thinking of what will be,
We never live in the moment of Now,
We waste our lives and wonder how.



Edit: This song basically explains my message to the world. I believe in taking life at my own pace, while people around me keep rushing to places and appointments. Somehow I wanted to make this song to put life into perspective for them, all those people who rush in life and keep saying its so tough.
