‘'Living Small’‘ is about making your life simpler by cutting some things out and just enjoying the present moment for what it is without needing to use drugs/alcohol, mood-altering substances, etc. The first verse implies that always being high will keep you from seeing things from another perspect...
[Verse 1]
Sitting up there so high you’ll never get to look at something like you would from the bottom
It’s lonely staring down at everyone
Where am I gonna go when there’s nowhere left to climb?
[Chorus]
I could just take a little bit less
I could just take it slow and
Be here now for a moment
I know I’ve been away for a while
I know I’ve been forgetting
What it’s like when I let it
[Verse 2]
I’m trying hard to treat it like a wave
Or when I feel it, be like wind in a tunnel
Like I’m watching a candle while it dims
Since I remember it’s been burning like dead leaves in my head
[Chorus]
I could just take a little bit less
I could just take it slow and
Be here now for a moment
I know I’ve been away for a while
I know I’ve been forgetting
What it’s like when I let it
[Bridge]
If you don’t want to be here now
No one’s making you wait and
You’re the only one who could know
All it is, cause you made it
[Chorus]
I could just take a little bit less
I could just take it slow and
Be here now for a moment
I know I’ve been away for a while
I know I’ve been forgetting
What it’s like when I let it
