Is no different from yesterday
But today feels different somehow

And the cats I’ve never seen
Are a bit scary
But my steps are light, alright

But I don’t want to stop
At the end of these clumsy steps
What color will the spring flowers be?

Our energy is beyond the top
So we just need to
Get out of this teeny tiny box
Yeah better get out

Maybe more than the clumsy
Cowardly me from before
I want to jump a little higher
With the new me and you
Under the heart that feels like the first time

Our hearts won’t stop beating
Laughing, crying, and laughing again
We are full of firsts now
The lyrics beautifully capture the vulnerable yet thrilling experience of navigating a life full of unfamiliar firsts. Even though the surroundings feel strange and intimidating, the narrator finds comfort and courage through a partner’s reassuring words that it is completely fine to fall down. Moving past a former, fearful self, they express a newfound willingness to step out of their tiny comfort zone and break boundaries. Embracing every clumsy stride and emotional fluctuation of crying and laughing, the track portrays youth as a shining journey fueled by a resilient heart that eagerly anticipates the colorful future ahead.
