People Should Smile More
Embrace Joy: Unveiling the Wisdom Behind Newton Faulkner's Melodic Message
Lyrics
People should smile more
Expressing the belief that people should exhibit more happiness.
I'm not saying there's nothing to cry for
Acknowledging that there are valid reasons for sorrow or distress.
But you've got everything laid out for you
Noting that individuals often have their lives well-arranged or planned.
Just close your eyes, take a deep breath and start another war
Suggesting a coping mechanism of closing one's eyes, taking a deep breath, and confronting challenges head-on.
Keep buying, keep moving, this city is sitting
Commenting on the constant hustle and activity of urban life.
Next to me, we're laid out, it's gonna come
Describing a shared experience of being in a state of repose or relaxation.
One thing is certain
Highlighting an inevitable aspect or outcome.
I can't change the world
Expressing a limitation in the ability to change the entire world.
'Cause tryin' to make a difference makes it worse
Asserting that efforts to bring about positive change may sometimes have adverse effects.
It's just an observation I can't ignore
Stating an observation that cannot be disregarded.
That people should smile more
Reiterating the belief that people should display more joy.
And people should smile more
Repeating the idea that increased happiness is desirable.
But the lights are so bright that they blind you
Noting the overwhelming intensity of external influences like bright lights.
Just one more meaningless scientific breakthrough
Mentioning a scientific breakthrough with potentially little significance.
The more we know, the less we care whilst damaged on the way
Reflecting on a paradox where knowledge may decrease empathy on the journey of life.
Keep moving, keep buying, this city is sitting
Reiterating the busyness and consumerism of urban life.
Next to me, well laid out, it's gonna come
Repeating the scenario of being laid out or relaxed.
One thing is certain
Reiterating the certainty of a particular outcome or situation.
I can't change the world
Reiterating the inability to single-handedly change the world.
'Cause tryin' to make a difference makes it worse
Repeating the idea that attempting to make a difference can have negative consequences.
It's just an observation I can't ignore
Reiterating the recognition of an observation that cannot be ignored.
That people could smile more, people should smile more
Emphasizing the idea that individuals could and should display more happiness.
I can't change the world
Reiterating the acknowledgment of personal limitations in changing the world.
'Cause tryin' to make a difference makes it worse
Repeating the notion that efforts to make a difference may have unintended consequences.
It's just an observation I can't ignore
Reiterating the recognition of an observation that cannot be ignored.
That people could smile more, people should smile more
Emphasizing the idea that individuals could and should display more happiness.
I can't change the world
Reiterating the acknowledgment of personal limitations in changing the world.
'Cause tryin' to make a difference makes it worse
Repeating the notion that efforts to make a difference may have unintended consequences.
It's just an observation I can't ignore
Reiterating the recognition of an observation that cannot be ignored.
That people could smile more, people should smile more
Emphasizing the idea that individuals could and should display more happiness.
