Shut Down

Story Behind The Song

I find that many people I encounter are obsessed with their gadgets and toys and cannot be bothered to even listen to others problems or even stories about their day. They just want to get back on Facebook or check their email rather than pay attention to people who are in their presence at any given time. Sometimes we should all think about shutting down. It's not just the way your turn off your computer but whether you can leave it off.

Song Description

The song is mainly about how sometimes it's best for people to help each other instead of being wrapped up in their own little world. It touches on modern life and especially technology being the key reasons for how self centered people are increasingly becoming. During hard times, like the current recession, people should stick together and remember that the world is about people and not possessions.

Lyrics

Move slowly
Like riding
the soft blowing wind
Around me
is a new place I've never been
Surround me
Putting things all into place
Someday I'll find my own space

People come together
Start sharing your means
Cause everybody knows
We all need some relief
If we could all shut down

Move swiftly
Sharpening
your wit and your skills
Keep hoping
Cause giving up surely kills

People come together
Start sharing your means
Cause everybody knows
We all need some relief
If we could all shut down
If we could shut down
If we could shut down
If we could shut down

Move slowly
Minding the wind in your face
Lonely
Knowing that you're in your place
Moving me
Making me stay
Someday I'll find my own space
