Dance Lessons from Wavelength by nostraightanswer (Kenji-B)

"The song is about the act of learning how to be happy, or rather, learning how to accept that fact that there will be times where one is unhappy, and when those times occur, it's okay to be sad, upset, or whatever emotion takes its place. I tried to link it to the act of learning a "sunny dance", which, hypothetically, is a dance that bring the sunlight in. It's less about, however, being in a "sunny mood" and more about clearing away the thoughts that if you are unhappy you should just suck it up and put on a brave face, because that's not the way to go." -nostraightanswer (Kenji-B)

Lyrics

So let's begin by slowing down,
sort it out.
Breathe; take it in, then let it out.
Hear the sound.

It comes from within like a wildfire,
crackling and flowing with the wind.
Happiness, it comes, exists,
but we must learn how to make it persist.

When you feel like you've just burned out,
arise from the ashes, safe and sound,
and when you feel like you've lost it all,
hang on to the edge, I won't let you fall.

Does it feel like the time has passed?
Does it feel like you've won at last?
Does it feel like you have a chance?
Does it feel like a sunny dance?

Now, close your eyes; head to the sky,
You'll survive.
Breathe; take it in, then let it out
You can cry,

cause it comes like a waterfall,
moving with the force of gods,
and must be hard, against all odds;
Happiness, it comes and goes,
it will come back, and now you know.

When you feel like you've just burned out,
arise from the ashes, safe and sound,
and when you feel like you've lost it all,
hang on to the edge, I won't let you fall.

Does it feel like the time has passed?
Does it feel like you've won at last?
Does it feel like you have a chance?
Does it feel like a sunny dance?

When you feel like you've just burned out,
arise from the ashes, safe and sound,
and when you feel like you've lost it all,
hang on to the edge, I won't let you fall.

Does it feel like the time has passed?
Does it feel like you've won at last?
Does it feel like you have a chance?
Does it feel like a sunny dance?
