This Must Be Life
Embracing Life's Burdens: "This Must Be Life" Insights
Lyrics
What is this form that I have taken?
Reflecting on the nature or essence of the current existence.
I do not recall asking for this
Expressing a lack of choice or consent in taking on this form of life.
But now I'm here, I am alive; I have dreams to realize
Acknowledging the current state of being alive with aspirations to fulfill.
And though it's a very heavy burden of life, I must try
Recognizing life as a challenging and weighty experience but committing to trying.
Yeah, I must try to live or be ready to die
Emphasizing the necessity to strive for life despite its difficulties.
So now I'm dying to live
Expressing a strong desire to live despite challenges.
Oh this must be life
Concluding that what is being experienced is indeed life.
Oh this must be life
Reiterating the realization and acceptance of the current state of existence.
Oh this must be life
Emphasizing the certainty and reality of life.
And how much water is in your well?
Posing a metaphorical question about the depth of personal resources.
To put out the fire that's in your hell?
Asking about the capacity to overcome personal struggles or challenges.
Well, it's not about the problems that you know
Stating that the focus should not be on known problems but on how one deals with them.
It's how you cope
Highlighting the importance of coping mechanisms in facing difficulties.
It's how you cope
Repeating the emphasis on effective coping strategies.
And I've spent my existence just trying to be happy
Describing a lifelong pursuit of happiness despite its potential challenges.
And though that may be unrealistic, I'm still going to try
Acknowledging the potential unrealistic nature of the pursuit but expressing determination.
For we can be a waste and let ourselves down
Presenting a choice between self-destruction and inaction.
Or do nothing about it and hope that it all works out
Highlighting the consequences of doing nothing and hoping for the best.
But that's not the answer that I've come to realize
Rejecting passive approaches and advocating for active realization of solutions.
And I'm dying to live
Reiterating the strong desire to live despite challenges.
Oh this must be life
Affirming the conclusion that this challenging experience is indeed life.
Oh this must be life
Reaffirming the acceptance and acknowledgment of life.
Oh this must be life
Emphasizing the certainty and reality of life.
And how much water is in your well?
Repeating the metaphorical question about personal resources.
To put out the fire that's in your hell?
Reiterating the need for personal strength to overcome challenges.
Well, it's not about the problems that you know
Stating that the focus should be on coping mechanisms rather than known problems.
It's how you cope
Reemphasizing the significance of effective coping strategies.
It's how you cope
Repeating the emphasis on the importance of coping in facing life's difficulties.
