Lyrics
You can’t run and hide
You cannot avoid or escape
Look out below
Be cautious or alert below
Whatever feels right
Follow whatever feels right
When you know you know
Trust your instincts when you are sure
Nothing like I would have guessed
Things are different from what I expected
Up so high I’m feeling blessed
Feeling fortunate and elevated
Dark into light
Transitioning from darkness to light
Seeking shelter from the storm
Seeking protection from difficulties
Strange paradise
A peculiar and exciting place
I’m completely transformed
Undergoing a complete change
Say your goodbyes
Saying farewell
Leave your old life behind
Letting go of your past life
Leave your old life behind
Repeated emphasis on leaving the past
It’s just what I needed
This is exactly what I needed
I still can’t believe it
Still in disbelief about the positive change
It’s just what I needed
Reiteration of the positive impact
I still can’t believe it
Continued disbelief in the positive transformation
It’s just what I needed
Repeated affirmation of fulfillment
So go dry your tears
Encouragement to stop crying
We got work to do
Tasks and responsibilities lie ahead
Nothing left to fear
Nothing to be afraid of anymore
Were gonna break on through
We will overcome obstacles
Pushed it to the bleeding edge
Pushed to the limit
A high that you won’t soon forget
An intense experience that remains memorable
Dark into light
Similar to lines 8-9, a repetition of seeking light and shelter
Seeking shelter from the storm
Continued search for protection
Strange paradise
Similar to line 10, a reiterated reference to an unusual and exciting place
I’m completely transformed
Reiteration of a profound transformation
Say your goodbyes
Repeating the act of bidding farewell
Leave your old life behind
Reiterating leaving the past life behind
Leave your old life behind
Emphasizing the abandonment of the old life
It’s just what I needed
Reaffirming that it is exactly what was needed
I still can’t believe it
Still struggling to believe in the positive change
It’s just what I needed
Reiteration of the positive impact
I still can’t believe it
Continued disbelief in the positive transformation
It’s just what I needed
Final affirmation of fulfillment and contentment
