♪ I can see each piece of me ♪ ♪ Consolidate remaining energy ♪ ♪ Sometimes life is like a dream ♪ ♪ I can barely walk, I've no voice to scream ♪ The whole facing it however you may is sort of just, I guess a lot of the time it's me talking to myself.
♪ But avoidance is temporary ♪ ♪ Face it all however you may ♪ More so just like however you're able to do it, sort of get to the root of some of the things that are troubling you as opposed to just sort of pushing them down and forgetting about them.
So I think overall it's just a song that's really talking about facing the difficult things and getting through it and moving on.
♪ No, it won't just go away ♪
