Lyrics
Here's another lesson learned
Reflecting on a new lesson acquired
Life's not quite as awesome
Life doesn't always meet expectations
As the movies make it out to be
Contrasts life with idealized portrayals in movies
At any point you might get hurt
Life involves potential pain or difficulties
So try and be as well prepared
Advocating for preparation to minimize harm
As much as you could ever be
Encouraging maximum preparedness
We've seen the sun go down on many situations
Recalling instances where clarity was needed
When we needed much more light to see
Describing situations requiring more understanding
One day the sun will break
Anticipating a positive change in circumstances
The clouds and we won't be as frustrated
Expectation of relief and reduced frustration
As when we couldn't help with anything
Reflecting on past helplessness
We were unstable
Describing a period of emotional instability
Emotionally drained
Feeling emotionally exhausted
Cut out to complain
Choosing not to complain despite difficulties
We were unable to see things
Unable to perceive things clearly
We're meant to see
Missed opportunities or perspectives
Inhale air we're meant to breathe
Not fully experiencing life as intended
Here's a piece of bad advice: Assume that life is awesome and then deal with the consequence
Ironically advising to assume life is great
You might not fall asleep at night
Sacrificing peace for preparedness
At least you'll be prepared for any shit you might experience
Being ready for potential challenges
We've seen the clouds dissolve
Recalling moments when needed support vanished
When we really needed their shade
Missing the expected protection or relief
To protect us from the sun
Desiring shelter from life's challenges
One day we'll watch those clouds reform
Hopeful for the return of needed support
And we'll figure out a difference
Seeking understanding of past actions
In the good and bad things we have done
Evaluating the consequences of actions
We were unstable
Reiterating emotional instability
Emotionally drained
Continued emotional exhaustion
Cut out to complain
Choosing not to complain despite challenges
We were unable to see things
Unable to perceive things clearly (repeated theme)
We're meant to see
Missed opportunities or perspectives (repeated theme)
Inhale air we're meant to breathe
Not fully experiencing life as intended (repeated theme)
