Lyrics:
We all know there’s gotta be a balance in the universe
Everything has gotta be in balance
So here is a list of words:
Empathy, gratitude
Beauty, ukulele,
Hot chips, rainbows
Harmony daily
Cup of tea, sea breeze
Popcorn, sweet dreams
Baby smell, music
Pure hearts, evergreens
Torn clothes, broken bones
Bad news, far from home
Heartache, entropy
Loneliness , remorse
Pet death, cruelty
Liars, scraped knees
Pressure, Regret
Greed, anxiety
We all know there’s gotta be a balance in the universe
Everything has gotta be in balance
So here is a list of words:
Sunshine, family
Snowflakes, weddings
Nature, patience
Festivals, Penguins
Laughter, cinema
Serendipity
Friend hugs, flowers
Ice cream , maple leaf
Allergies, break ups
Illness, prejudice
Traffic, ridicule
Loss, injustice
adults, mayhem
Left out, suffocate
Betrayed, apathy
Sorrow , climate change
We all know there’s gotta be a balance in the universe
Think about the balance when it feels like everything hurts
Watermelon, wildlife
Cold beer, delight
Children, reading
Euphoria, campfires
Ocean waves
Dragonflies
Cloudy days
End of night.
