So I was listening to this song and I love it, but I couldn't help but think of how as much as this is supposed to be an uplifting inspirational song, it can be kinda sad if looked at in a different light....
Sooo... I'm giving 10 points to either whoever comes up with the closest perspective to my own or the most creative, depending on the answers I get. To me the song is about accomplishing anything but you're right, if you really listen to the lyrics of the song, they can be seen as sadness. The line "When you figure out love is all that matters after all It sure makes everything else seem so small" kinda makes you wonder what ppl who arent in love or have anything like that to make them happy, think about.
It is a very beautiful song which I don't think can have just one meaning. It makes you realize how you invest so much time and energy in things that actually don't matter or are not all that important in life. And some people just don't realize it until it is too late and half their life has been wasted on insignificant things that really didn't matter. it means this...:
Yeah, Yeah
What you got if you ain't got love
the kind that you just want to give away
its okay to open up
go ahead and let the light shine through
I know it's hard on a rainy day
you want to shut the world out and just be left alone
but don't run out on your faith
____________________________
This part of the song means, dont be scared to love, be loved, and most importantly.. be yourself..dont give up. Things can be so complicated at the time but you cant ever let go. its saying like when your sad you just wanna be sad.. you dont even want to try to make yourself happy..but you need to have faith in getting happy again.

'cause sometimes that mountain you've been climbing
is just a grain of sand
and what you've been up there searching for forever
is in your hands
when you figure out love is all that matters after all
it sure makes everything else seem so small
__________________________________
its saying at the time, things seem impossible and huge! but years down the road, they are not that big of problems after all. and that if you have love, you really dont need anything else.
--------------------------------------...
it's so easy to get lost inside
a problem that seems so big at the time
it's like a river thats so wide
it swallows you whole
while you siting 'round thinking 'bout what you can't change
and worrying about all the wrong things
time's flying by
moving so fast
you better make it count 'cause you cant get it back
______________________________________...
dont try changin stuff thats too hard to change. never run out on your faith, always believe, and dont worry about stuff that isnt that big of a problem. things get better as time goes by. so you better run with it because you will never get it back!
-------------------------------------
sometimes that mountain you've been climbing
is just a grain of sand
and what you've been up there searching for forever
is in your hands
oh when you figure out love is all that matters after all
it sure makes everything else seem so small
sometimes that mountain you've been climbing
is just a grain of sand
and what you've been up there searching for forever
is in your hands
oh when you figure out love is all that matters after all
it sure makes everything else...
oh it sure makes everything else seem so small
Yeah, Yeah

Basically.. all that matters is love. && don't waste time worrying about things because in the end;; things always work out. It means that things that seem so big don't really matter.."that mountain you have been climbing is just a grain of sand" Don't spend your whole life on things that don't matter concentrate on what does.. I love that song!!! "sometimes that mountain you've been climbing is just a grain of sand. and what you've been out there searching for forever is in your hands. when you figure out love is all that matters after all, it sure makes everything seem so small." LOVE IT!!! it is a sad song. in the video, the girl tries to get hit by a car cuz she thinks shes not cared about but then she changes her mind.. that song is the best. i feel you. Basically love is all that matters and dont worry about what other people think |
