this song is vocal about our attention to minute, insignificant details while completely missing out on the often bigger, optimistic picture. in our transition from childhood to adulthood, i think things shift from a black&white perspective to a dreary gray zone: our lives are ruled by the petty and meaningless (i usually interpret this as the opinion of others about you). we often don't move on from hurtful events or situations - unlike children who easily live and let go. maybe it's necessary to look at the bigger picture far often than we would want to.
