“The Problem With The Big Picture Is That It’s Hard To See” is included on Mayday Parade’s 10 year anniversary reissue of the band’s 2006 debut EP, Tales Told By Dead Friends. The music video features memories of the band’s 10 year existence.
You don’t have to go,I know I’ve told you before
I could never say it enough
And that’s the whole point, we could drive back to Florida
My home forever and you know it’s yours
Let’s see where we land or head out to sea
Hit the waves and don’t stop and see where they take us
I was drawn to your light, now I don’t even see it
I need you to find me
I said I’m sorry
But I wasn’t sorry enough to give back what you gave me
I got to you fast, but not fast enough
I know the reason you’re always afraid
A decade of love, laughter and movement
With just enough struggle keeps it interesting
Once in awhile I find that old fire
The same one that got us here, I’m so afraid to lose
I hope I land where you’ll always be
A place with some magic, let’s see how far that takes us
You were my soul, now I can’t even feel you
(You said that you would find me)
I said I’m sorry
But I wasn’t sorry enough to give back what you gave me
I got to you fast, but not fast enough
I know the reason you’re always afraid
May you find what you need in the darkest tunnel so deep down
May you hold onto me, just at least another time around
I said I’m sorry
But I wasn’t sorry enough to give back what you gave me
I got to you fast, but not fast enough
I know the reason you’re always afraid
I know the reason you’re always afraid
(Say that you will, say that you will)
(Give me all of your time, say that it's nothing)
The Problem With The Big Picture Is That It’s Hard To See was produced by Lee Dyess.
Mayday Parade released The Problem With The Big Picture Is That It’s Hard To See on Thu Nov 10 2016.
Mayday Parade vocalist Derek Sanders shared with Alternative Press:
This song is about everything I’ve experienced in this band in the 10 years since Tales Told By Dead Friends was released. It seemed appropriate, even destined perhaps, to put together this song with a video compiled of old footage...
