The Optimist
Embrace Change: The Optimist's Journey to Inner Freedom
Lyrics
Let me help you
Offering assistance or support
Step out of your skin
Encouraging someone to step out of their comfort zone
Found the only way from the outside in
Finding a perspective or solution from an external viewpoint
If I can get in
Expressing a desire to understand someone deeply
You can get out if I can get in
Emphasizing that change is possible if mutual understanding is achieved
If I can get in
Reiterating the possibility of mutual transformation
You can get out if I can get in
Repeating the idea that change is achievable through mutual effort
The roots set down deep and stood up tall
Describing deep and resilient foundations, breaking barriers
Knock the fences down they kept them small
Encouraging breaking down restrictive barriers
Now they're overgrown, you've lost all control
Describing the consequences of neglect, loss of control
Now they're overgrown, you've lost all control
Repeating the idea of consequences due to neglect
Pick it up where you leave it
Encouraging picking up where something was left off
Fall and place and repeat it
Describing a repetitive cycle of falling and rising
Ride the day into the night and back to the light
Suggesting embracing the entire journey from day to night and back to light
Maybe all that we needed was a change of the seasons
Reflecting on the possibility that a change in seasons is what is needed
Time to make it all right, make it all right
Emphasizing the importance of time to make things right
Time to let the heat in
Signifying a moment to let positive energy and warmth into one's life
Time for proper weeding
Highlighting the importance of proper evaluation and removal of negativity
See
Indicating a need to see things from a different perspective
It's not that deep
Minimizing the depth of a situation, suggesting it may be simpler than perceived
Time to catch your breathing
Emphasizing the need to take a moment to relax and recover
Time to regain feeling
Stressing the importance of regaining emotional sensitivity
See if you look differently it's smaller than it seems
Encouraging a different perspective, suggesting things may be smaller than they seem
