Lyrics Meaning
In the cool shadows, countless gems await discovery, buried in sand. Change routines to see new things. Look far, shine bright beside you, and dream of worlds beyond the waves. We have the power to row there. Fly and dream of futures, strong even today. When a sudden storm falls on dancing birds, people huddle without a home, and the city fills with unpleasant sirens, not everything is beautiful, but we all live in confusion. After the rain, we wait for a rainbow. Keep shining, find the light within, and listen to our heartbeats, guiding us to the path we should follow.
