Do you ever feel like an airplane attempting to cruise the sky with a propeller on fire?

And you’re sinking down into silence, trying to grab hold of stability

But the fire just keeps getting bigger

And the air seems to be getting thinner

And there’s nothing you can do but fall, sink, crash, burn

Have you ever felt like a green light on a busy street?

No one stops to ask how you’re doing

No one thinks about how you feel

They just drive right past and forget you were ever there

Because you’re not red, so you didn’t make them stop and think

You’re not yellow so you didn’t make them slow down and pause at your presence

You’re just green and unnoticed

Once in a while we all just need to sit down

Breathe deep

And realize that what is the point of life if you’re not doing what you love

If you’re not smiling anymore

If you feel trapped, suffocated, bruised

You need to find fresh air, an escape, healing

You can change your path

Hose down the fire

Make people notice

And take a deep breath

Because if you keep living in a way that makes you unhappy

Then life will also pass you by, green light

without a pause or a smile
