The Bigger Picture Lyrics

You're just a tiny little cog in a massive wheel

And believe me, I know just how you feel

When we cease to exist, will we end up being missed

But this time you spend on Earth is a chance to prove your worth

A chance to contribute, to the bigger picture

Every move you make, every little shake

Is a jigsaw piece, in the bigger picture

We're getting older, feeling those aches and pains

We know the faces, can't remember the names

That day is creeping up on us fast

How much longer will this thing last

But when the butterfly flaps its wings, it sometimes changes things

Actions have reactions you can't predict

So keep on rolling on, just keep on keeping on

You're a part of this, bigger picture

Take yourself out of this urban sprawl

Find a hill, climb it and stand tall

The panorama that you can see

Was not made by just you and me

It was made by everyone and everything that came before

Every living thing in this world has left its mark

From a seed planted four and a half billion years ago

And we're part of this, bigger picture

What comes next, I don't know

But I'd like to think my soul has a place to go

Maybe that part of me will return

And prove that you live and learn

We're part of everything and everyone that came before

Every living thing in our world has left its mark

From a seed planted four and a half billion years ago

And I'm a part of this, bigger picture

And you're a part of this, bigger picture

We came from stardust, we're all just stardust

We will return, never disappear

We came from stardust, we're all just stardust

We will return, never fade away

Because we're part of this, bigger picture
