Leave Some of the Ends Loose
Embrace Freedom: Unraveling Life's Threads with Jon Troast
Lyrics
Everybody needs
Everyone requires
A little room to breathe
Some personal space to breathe
Everybody needs a day off
Everyone needs a break
There's a lot of things
There are many factors
Pulling on our strings
Exerting influence on us
A lot of opportunities lost
Numerous missed opportunities
You can try to tie 'em all up
Attempting to control them all
I don't think it's worth the cost
Believes it's not worthwhile
Leave some of the ends loose
Leave some aspects unresolved
Let some of the sand slip through your hands
Allow some experiences to slip away
If it all gets away from you
If everything escapes your grasp
Stop trying to fit it all in your plans
Stop trying to control every detail
Before you're all tied up in knots
Before becoming entangled and confused
Don't know what to do
Feeling lost and uncertain
Leave some of the ends loose
Leave some aspects unresolved
You can spend your days
You can spend your time
Tryin' to play it safe
Trying to be overly cautious
Cleaning up what you want to hide
Cleaning up things you want to keep hidden
You'd be better off
You would be better off
Going for a walk
Taking a stroll
Even if your shoe's untied
Even if your shoe is untied
Some folks might laugh if you fall
Some may mock if you stumble
At least you're getting outside
At least you're outdoors
Leave some of the ends loose
Leave some aspects unresolved
Let some of the sand slip through your hands
Allow some experiences to slip away
If it all gets away from you
If everything escapes your grasp
Stop trying to fit it all in your plans
Stop trying to control every detail
Before you're all tied up in knots
Before becoming entangled and confused
Don't know what to do
Feeling lost and uncertain
Leave some of the ends loose
Leave some aspects unresolved
Please stop holding your breath
Kindly stop holding your breath
Don't focus on what you've got left
Don't fixate on what remains
To do, I know you're trying to control
Trying to control
The things that happen to you
The events that occur
We drive ourselves crazy
We drive ourselves mad
Thinking resting means we're lazy
Thinking that resting is laziness
But the only way we're making it through
The only way to endure
Leave some of the ends loose
Leave some aspects unresolved
If it all gets away from you
If everything escapes your grasp
Leave some of the ends loose
Leave some aspects unresolved
Let some of the sand slip through your hands
Allow some experiences to slip away
If it all gets away from you
If everything escapes your grasp
Stop trying to fit it all in your plans
Stop trying to control every detail
Before you're all tied up in knots
Before becoming entangled and confused
Don't know what to do
Feeling lost and uncertain
Leave some of the ends loose
Leave some aspects unresolved
