Listen "Folded Arms"
Episode Synopsis
Lyrics:
What happened to the days?
When men were kind?
When we were void of such distractions
Hundreds of years ago
You would not find
A lonely person known by thousands
In all my life I’ve never known the peace and quiet
And I never will because everywhere is noise
We start but never finish
Our brains become diminished
We jump from thing to thing
We cannot concentrate x2
In this world
In this life
So, hold me and count to ten
Then fold your arms and we’ll start again
Keep looking from sun till snow
Unfold your arms and away we go
Your arms are my place of home
Oh
I often walk around
With no device
It keeps me grounded in the moment
It’s all the simple things
That pass you by
So try and look up every once in a while
I know it’s hard to be the odd one out of millions
And I always will because people never change
We only go through phases
The shift it often dazes
There’s nowhere else to turn
But plenty left to learn
In this world
In this life
So, hold me and count to ten
Then fold your arms and we’ll start again
Keep looking from sun till snow
Unfold your arms and away we go
Your arms are my place of home x2
What happened to the days?
When men were kind?
When we were void of such distractions
Hundreds of years ago
You would not find
A lonely person known by thousands
In all my life I’ve never known the peace and quiet
And I never will because everywhere is noise
We start but never finish
Our brains become diminished
We jump from thing to thing
We cannot concentrate x2
In this world
In this life
So, hold me and count to ten
Then fold your arms and we’ll start again
Keep looking from sun till snow
Unfold your arms and away we go
Your arms are my place of home
Oh
I often walk around
With no device
It keeps me grounded in the moment
It’s all the simple things
That pass you by
So try and look up every once in a while
I know it’s hard to be the odd one out of millions
And I always will because people never change
We only go through phases
The shift it often dazes
There’s nowhere else to turn
But plenty left to learn
In this world
In this life
So, hold me and count to ten
Then fold your arms and we’ll start again
Keep looking from sun till snow
Unfold your arms and away we go
Your arms are my place of home x2
