Now that you’re older
Taking the time to look
Back over your shoulder
On the days confusion took
Now that you’re wiser
Surely you’ve learned to read it
You should know
No surface shines brighter
Than the light that burns beneath it
Never so sure
We always take more
Though we still don’t know what it’s for
Now that I’ve seen you
Stripped to the very core
I know that I need you
Less than I did before
Never so sure
We always take more
Though we still don’t know what it’s for
The selflessness of this music is overwhelming. I am in awe. I thank God for artists like this. How inspiring this music is to the artist no matter the medium.
I bumped into this song in the coffee shop (I listen to rap on my headphones so I was an accident) I asked them to play it again... and again... and again.
Incredible group of truly gifted musical artists. I'm just finding Zero 7 and I'm glad I haven't gone any further in my 60 years of life without hearing them.

I will forever associate this song with "assignment deadline looming" feelings. for some reason zero 7 music is the only music i can withstand when typing furiously during those last hours before submitting my work lol.
