It's Your Decision
Embrace or Release: Navigate Your Emotions with Cloud Cult's 'It's Your Decision'
Lyrics
Check in, check in on your emotion
Encouragement to introspect and evaluate one's emotions.
Are you an angry one, or a feather?
Questioning whether one tends towards anger or is more delicate and light (like a feather).
Will you sink today, or let it float away?
Choice between dwelling on negative emotions (sink) or letting them go (float away).
It's your decision
Emphasizing that the decision about emotional responses is in the individual's control.
Oh, oh, no
Expressing dismay or concern about a situation.
Back off, back off, I'm discontented
Requesting space due to dissatisfaction or unease.
I don't want to talk about it
Reluctance to discuss a particular issue or emotion.
I can't put my finger on it
Feeling unable to pinpoint or understand a specific emotion or situation.
It's the strangest thing, when you've tried most everything
Highlighting the feeling of trying various approaches but still not finding fulfillment.
yet something's always missing
Sense of something perpetually missing despite efforts.
Oh, oh, no
Reiteration of dismay or concern about a situation.
Leave me alone, I'm going inwards
Desire for solitude to focus inwardly, away from external distractions.
I've got work to do disarming land mines
Metaphorical reference to personal struggles or challenges needing attention and resolution.
If I hold it in, I'll just blow up again
Fear that suppressing emotions may lead to an explosive emotional outburst.
My trigger finger's itching
Feeling the urge or readiness to react strongly to a situation.
Oh, oh, no
Reiteration of dismay or concern about a situation.
Check in, check in on your emotion
Encouragement to reevaluate one's emotions, echoing the opening lines.
Are you an angry one, or a feather?
Repetition of the question regarding one's emotional tendencies.
Will you sink today, or let it float away?
Reiteration of the choice between dwelling on negativity or letting go.
It's your decision
Reaffirmation that the decision about emotional responses remains within one's control.
Oh, oh, no
Reiteration of dismay or concern about a situation.
