The Shadows We Miss
Unveiling Life's True Currency
Lyrics
They buy security over happiness
People prioritize security over happiness in their choices.
And they get it at that price
They achieve security but at a cost.
So obedient to their cynicism
Individuals conform to their cynical beliefs.
Nothing changes so why roll the dice?
Resistance to change due to the perceived futility of taking risks.
That voice, so quiet deep down inside of you
A quiet inner voice exists within each person.
Listen, listen
Encouragement to pay attention and heed that inner voice.
The signal's weak but it's getting through
The inner voice's signal is weak but gradually becoming stronger.
Listen, listen.
Emphasis on the importance of listening to the inner voice.
You'll hear it in the kindness of strangers
The inner voice can be heard in acts of kindness from strangers.
In time and a word you can't say
It manifests in subtle expressions that are hard to articulate.
There's light in the heart of the darkness
Positivity exists within the heart of difficult circumstances.
Not what you own, what you make.
Value is in what one creates, not just what one possesses.
Sun rise high, high in the sky today
A new day brings opportunities to discover overlooked aspects.
And show us the shadows we miss
Challenges us to recognize the unseen shadows in life.
I've found something, something bigger than me
Discovery of a purpose or cause larger than oneself.
And I dedicate my life to this.
Commitment to dedicating one's life to this newfound purpose.
Hear it in the kindness of strangers
Reiteration of the inner voice in acts of kindness from strangers.
In time and a word you can't say
Reference to unspoken expressions that convey deeper meanings.
There's light in the heart of the darkness
Amid darkness, there is a positive essence in the heart.
Not what you own, what you make.
Emphasis on the value of personal creation over possession.
If you open your eyes
An invitation to open one's eyes and gain awareness.
You soon realise
Recognition that the world is not solely for us to claim.
This world can't be ours
Suggests the need to maintain a dream-like state even in reality.
Keep a dead brain still dreaming
The choice between passive existence and active, heartfelt engagement.
Or open our beating hearts?
The question of whether to keep emotions guarded or openly express them.
There's light in the heart of the darkness...
Reiteration of the positive essence within challenging situations.
