Stop Take a look, just for a moment, go on do it What do you see? No, do not say ‘me’ How about that weeping man? Who claimed to always have a plan Now look over at that young couple They’re recently engaged You can see the sparkles in their eyes and their glittering diamonds In a time not too long ago that would’ve been impossible, right? Don’t forget the shouting children They run and run But not from their problems, no They do it for fun Do you see what I mean? All of these complex human beings, walking around Just existing, like you and me Breathing and feeling Like you and me

Stop Take a look, just for a moment, go on do it What do you see? No, do not say ‘me’ How about that weeping man? Who claimed to always have a plan Now look over at that young couple They’re recently engaged You can see the sparkles in their eyes and their glittering diamonds In a time not too long ago that would’ve been impossible, right? Don’t forget the shouting children They run and run But not from their problems, no They do it for fun Do you see what I mean? All of these complex human beings, walking around Just existing, like you and me Breathing and feeling Like you and me
I know that sonder's validity as a word is contested, but I still like it.
