	Story Behind the Song Why do the best ones come when you're stressed? This was written on guitar and vocals in the beginning, but the unusual chord progression made me want to push it a bit with instruments and harmony parts. The lyrics are a personal reminder that no matter how big a problem can seem, looking at the sky can help make it seem a little smaller. The song was written during my first year at university. It took a LONG time to compose fully, and to mix, but the original acoustic version took about ten minutes. Lyrics Don't Forget To Look At The Sky Verse 1: When you find that you're in a little fix, Don't question why it is that everything's five and six. Don't go around with your head to the floor, Keep your chin up high, reach the sky, you'll see a lot more. When you're feeling pretty down and headless, You wonder why? You've lost your way, and everything's just senseless. Forget about your troubles and your woes, ain't nobody here but friends, we'll take away your foes. Chorus: Take a breath, have a sigh, But don't forget to look at the sky, Keep your head, and don't cry, But don't forget to look at the sky. Verse 2: Getting up in the morning's crazy, I feel snowed under, or just plain lazy. Time waits for no man, woman or God, Do I have a break or do some work, I can't tell what I should… Do anymore, I feel so tired, I might as well be Al Capone, only my best friend's wired. I'm sweating bricks and I just can't click my fingers anymore, They're just too damn quick. Verse 3: When I've taken the time I'm due, To look up at the stars and see pieces of you, Smiling back at me with wise words to say, This time-out or break has made my day. Gonna let it all just hang out, Cos' problems mean shit when we’ve got our wars, You realise how small and pointless, These hectic days and hectic ways, make us so hepped up. Outro: Take a minute just to see what it is, And I can't go wrong when I think about this. Things in your world seem like a big lie so, Hear what I say and look at the sky. Just take five, Close your eyes, But don't forget to look at the sky, Smell the air, don't ask why, But don't forget to look at the sky.
