A New Perspective

from Sleeping Beneath the Trees by Max Hopkins

/

lyrics

Without the footprints there’s no memory
Without the dirt there is no mark
Without the ground that we stand so tall on
We’re lost out in the dark

Without the evil there’s no good in life
Without the hope there is no chance
But with the love we share there’s bound to be stability
If we give humankind a chance

With every struggle comes perspective
With every storm there comes the calm
With every breath you take, you’re bound to be incredible
When you find strength in who you are

This life is complicated
We don’t get along
We all need some understanding
And to remember who we are

Sometimes perfection is achievable
Even angels have their flaws
But finding happiness despite all of the weakness
Shows just how strong you are

Without the sting there’s no experience
You have to fall before you rise
But situations hold no meaning
Until you see them with your own eyes

This life is complicated
We don’t get along
We all need some understanding
And to remember who we are

If we don’t have love for one another
We don’t have a lot
But I know if we start the healing
The whole world will tag along
