Lyrics

Have you looked for the poetry beneath the surface
Looked beneath the perfects
Seen the beauty in your day-to-day urges
Where the arms of your lovers are like churches
Where night after night, you worship
And your morning commutes are like verses?
Your poetry is your purpose
Have you looked for the poetry beneath the grind
Even when you have the weight of the world on your spine
And then your card just got declined
But one smile from that pretty woman you were standin' behind
Turns your day into wine?
It gets better with time
Look for the poetry in laughter
Look for the poetry in drama
'Cause there's poetry in pain
There's poetry in gain
There's poetry in our everyday
In the trees when they sway
In the British skies as they transition
Between the blues and the greys
In the eyes of the old man when he waits to see another day
In the eyes of the young boy who says (Can you come out to play?)
Look for the poetry, look for the poetry
'Cause we are the poets, writers of our own destiny
With a lighter and a pen in your hand indefinitely
Don't fall for the dreams that they sell you, 'cause they're temporary
There's poetry livin' in your heart, takin' up residency
Have you looked for the poetry?
Look for the poetry in laughter
Look for the poetry in drama
'Cause there's poetry in pains
There's poetry in gains
Look for the poetry in laughter
Look for the poetry in drama
'Cause there's poetry in pains
There's poetry in gains
Gains, gains, gains, gains
Gains, gains, gains, gains
Gains, gains, gains, gains
