Everything's different once you see it up close.

Buildings are different.

People are different.

Life's different.

Through blindsided windows

Buildings from afar so shiny and new.

Pretty lights and not a flaw in sight.

Take a step closer and the rust and dust appears.

No longer a picture of perfection but an image with a tale.

Through blindsided windows

People from afar, so misread.

Bold and beautiful or dull and quiet.

Pull them into focus and the truth is found.

No longer a body misjudged but a soul with a story.

Through blindsided windows

Life from afar, so perfect and joyous.

Smiles and laughter, no worry in existence.

Look a little deeper and see the truth in the eyes.

No longer a storybook life but a life of reality.

Through blindsided windows you see,

We misread these things everyday.

Even something you could've been so sure about,

Can all change,

When you find a new perspective.

So enjoy the view

But don't get too comfortable.

Because it's better to see it real

Than to be stuck behind a window with endless blindsides.
