This song was written while making casual observations at a park in Austin, Texas. It’s a reflection of how we ignore the simple things that make life wonderful, and how we often take life for granted. At the park that day the clear blue sky was beautifully picturesque. I was sitting in front of a black water wall just watching people walk by and the lyrics just kind of fell into place. The third verse came to me later while I was at home reflecting on that day. I realized that I’m just as guilty as everyone else of not appreciating the simple things in life that surround me.
