Things That Matter

And the first thing on my mind was "running late"

I didn't stop and pray that they were safe

I never thought about it after

When did I start missing the things that matter?

With the same old jeans and a brand-new cardboard sign

And I didn't roll my window down

Didn't even smile at her

When did I start missing the things that matter?

Help me see the world through your eyes

'Til what breaks your heart is breaking mine

Slow me down. This world is moving faster

But I don't wanna miss the things that matter

I've got a thousand shouting voices in my head

'Cause I've heard a million more on the Internet

Father, how can I discern your voice from all of these distractions?

When did I start missing the things that matter?

Help me see the world through your eyes

'Til what breaks your heart is breaking mine

Slow me down. This world is moving faster

But I don't wanna miss the things that matter
