The song "Whiteboards" by Midnight Atmosphere is a poignant reflection on the passage of time, underscored by the stirring lyrics "Been hiding in plain sight, for one too many nights."
It delves into the importance of embracing life's journey, as encapsulated in the poignant line "Hope sends reassurance to testify, there's so much more to this mortal life."
Through evocative verses, it captures the essence of rediscovery and renewal, inspired by the resurrection of a forgotten whiteboard calendar. The song celebrates the idea of seizing the moment and cherishing the fleeting moments of warmth and hope, encapsulated by the uplifting refrain "Reaching for warm painted skies, seldom wondering where, or why."

Lyrics
Been hiding in plain sight,
For one too many nights
So little time, let's take a step outside, alright,
We're goin for a ride, tonight!
Reaching for warm painted skies
Seldom wondering where, or why
Hope sends reassurance to testify
There's so much more to this mortal life
Once a message lost in time
Has been revitalized
An idea written down, not memorized
Was forgotten, but now it's prioritized, (get ready for it!)
The real secret to having it all is knowing you already do
The only one who needs convincing is you
Reaching for warm painted skies
Seldom wondering where, or why
Hope sends reassurance to testify
There's so much more to this mortal life
What's written down on my white board?
What's written down on your white board?
It's not wasted space!
It's just dry erase!
There's no permanent marker on my white board!
