Lyrics

Now that I'm less hungover

Recovery from a hangover, gaining clarity

I can finally hear all the words you say

Improved ability to comprehend spoken words

Driverless cars all end up in the ocean

Metaphor for unexpected outcomes, loss of control

Even when they think they know the way

Skepticism about certainty and knowledge


Now that the great storm is over

Overcoming a challenging or turbulent period

I can finally learn all the things you know

Opportunity to acquire knowledge or wisdom

All the roads lead us back to the ocean

Paths in life leading to a common destination

Even if you cannot bear to go

Being drawn to a significant destination despite reluctance


Life is yours, break away

An encouragement to take control of one's life

Life is yours, I heard you say

Confirmation of the speaker hearing the message


Now that I proved my devotion

Displaying commitment or loyalty

I can see the start of a brand new day

A new beginning after proving dedication

And at the edge of the Pacific ocean

Contemplation at the boundary of vast possibilities

Life is yours, I heard you say

Reiteration of the affirmation from line 12


Life is yours, break away

Reiteration of the encouragement to seize life

Life is yours, I heard you say

Confirmation of hearing the message in line 19

Life is yours, break away

Repetition of the call to take control of one's life

Life is yours, your life awaits

A reminder that life is full of possibilities


The choice is yours

Empowerment through the freedom of choice

Don't be late

An admonition to act promptly

Start to fade and break away

Initiating a process of transformation and liberation

The choice is yours

Reiteration of the empowerment through choice

Don't be late

Emphasizing the importance of timely action

Start to fade and break away

Continuation of the process of breaking away


Life is yours, break away

Repetition of the encouragement to seize life

Life is yours, I heard you say

Confirmation of hearing the message in line 31

Life is yours, break away

Repetition of the call to take control of one's life

Life is yours, I heard you say

Confirmation of hearing the message in line 33

Life is yours, break away

Repetition emphasizing the urgency of taking control

Life is yours, your life awaits

A reminder that life's opportunities are waiting
