Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time is ticking slow
I know
It all seems blue
But we’ll get through
There’ll be birds & butterflies
When we go outside
So much life thrives
Who knew it could survive
While we were stuck inside
When we open the doors
Let’s go back better
Together
Let’s work together
Make it better
Let’s work together
Make it better




Let’s work together
Make it better
