Life is a waterfall
We're one in the river
And one again after the fall
Swimming through the void
We hear the word
We lose ourselves but we find it all
'Cause we are the ones that want to play
Always want to go
But you never want to stay
And we are the ones that want to choose
Always want to play
But you never want to lose
Aerials in the sky
When you lose small mind
You free your life
Life is a waterfall
We drink from the river
Then we turn around and put up our walls
Swimming through the void
We hear the word
We lose ourselves but we find it all
'Cause we are the ones that want to play
Always want to go
But you never want to stay
We are the ones that want to choose
Always want to play
But you never want to lose
Aerials in the sky
When you lose small mind
You free your life
Aerials, so up high
When you free your eyes
Eternal prize
Aerials in the sky
When you lose small mind
You free your life
Aerials, so up high
When you free your eyes
Eternal prize

I believe the meaning of this song is about being selfish and how people take things but they dont give things back. The lyrics say "Life is a waterfall We drink from the river Then we turn around and put up our walls" i think that refers to taking things and not doing anything good back to help... almost like taking a tree for wood and not planting another tree
