The Big Picture

Lyin' awake in the hours before morning

Watchin' the light push back the dark

That big burnin' ball always reminds me

How insignificant my worries are

In the big picture

Still it's the

little things that seem to get me

When life isn't fair and nothin' goes right

I take it out on the people who love me

It's easy to do, when you lose sight

Of the big picture

But in the big picture I see it all so clear

What I should do on this earth whil

e I'm here

Love on my family and friends when I can

And reach out to my fellow man

I believe it's a truth that we all have inside us

Tested and tried by those come before

Ask any wise man and he'll gladly tell you

Love or money, which matters more

In the

big picture

‘Cause in the big picture I see where we really are

On an oasis in an ocean of stars

Sharing the earth and our fears and our dreams

More alike than it sometimes may seem

Sittin' in front of a beautiful sunrise

Feelin' the light where it touch

es my face

I let myself imagine forever

And hope that someday I'll find my place

In the big picture

Cause in the big picture I see it all so clear

What we can do with our time while we're here

The more walls that crumble in the name of love

The better we'

ll see the beauty of

The big picture
