Lyrics to New Perspective



I always thought I had it figured out

No need for the benefit of the doubt

I could never look beyond what I could see

I was in control and it was all about me



I'm so sick and tired

Of this selfish life

I want more



Reach up

Reach out

This house is burning down

These walls we've built are caving in



Reach up

Don't give up

We're standing on the ashes

With a clearer view and a new perspective



I can feel the hardness breaking up inside

Shattered by the tears falling from their eyes

I just want to push beyond the boundaries

Surrendering all control 'cause it's not about me



They're so sick and tired

Of our selfish lives

They need more



Reach up

We know they need us

Reach out

And they're all around us

This house is burning down

These walls we've built are caving in



Reach up

It's a new beginning

Don't give up

With the love we're giving

We're standing on the ashes

With a clearer view and a new perspective



We need to open up our eyes

See it written on their faces?



We are running out of time

Is there no one who will save them?



I'm reaching out



Reach up

We know they need us

Reach out

And they're all around us

This house is burning down

These walls we've built are caving in



Reach up

It's a new beginning

Don't give up

With the love we're giving

We're standing on the ashes

With a clearer view and a new perspective



Reach up

We know they need us

Reach out

And they're all around us

This house is burning down

These walls we've built are caving in



Reach up

It's a new beginning

Don't give up

With the love we're giving

We're standing on the ashes

With a clearer view and a new perspective
