Winter
The Choice Lyrics

You're crying but as long as it's transparent and not red
Although you are crying, it's not something to be genuinely upset about as long as your tears are transparent rather than red, which would indicate physical harm or injury.

There's no real reason to be sad to the people who are
Others may not understand the reason behind your sadness, but it still exists and is valid for you.

Smiling, always happy, always gay they do not know
People who are always smiling and appear to be happy may not truly understand the range of emotions that others experience because they have not been in those situations.

That the edges of the mouth can move the other way
Even those who appear happy all the time may experience the negative emotions that cause the corners of their mouths to turn down in a frown.

You're freezing, the ice on which you nearly slipped outside
You feel cold, physically and emotionally, and have almost lost your balance and footing in your outer environment.

Is in your body, in your mind, getting warmer you are
The coldness has permeated your entire being, but somehow you are beginning to warm up and thaw out, mentally and physically.

Dreaming, quite useless but it feels okay to you
You are engaging in a fanciful and impractical activity, but it still brings you some sense of comfort and enjoyment.

In a world that's dreaming too, in a world in which you
You exist in a world where many people are also dreaming and looking for a way to escape or cope with their reality, which makes you feel less alone.

Keep on searching for a thing sublime
You are constantly seeking something exceptional, extraordinary or spiritually uplifting, but perhaps you overlook the beauty and meaningfulness of everyday life.

When all you need is inside of you
The fulfillment and happiness that you seek can be found within yourself, rather than in material possessions or external factors.

Everybody's waiting for springtime
People are eagerly anticipating the arrival of better and brighter times after a period of darkness or hardships.

Well winter can be cozy too
Despite its reputation as a bleak and uninviting season, winter can offer its own unique comforts and sense of coziness.

Cherish the moment, cherish the key
Appreciate and value the present moment, and recognize that it holds the key to finding contentment and peace.

That leads to sane insanity
By embracing the present and finding joy in simple pleasures, you can achieve a sense of balance and equanimity that might seem crazy to others in our fast-paced and demanding world.

Cherish incompetence, cherish me
Embrace and respect your own flaws and shortcomings, as well as those of others, and recognize that they are a key part of what makes us human and unique.

Don't ever cherish somebody who
Be wary of people who are constantly searching for perfection or who refuse to embrace their own flaws and imperfections.

Keeps on searching for a thing sublime
Continuously trying to find something exceptional or transcendental can lead to neglecting the more mundane but meaningful aspects of life.

When all you need is inside of you
Rather than seeking external validation or material possessions, look inward and recognize that the fulfillment and happiness you seek can be found within yourself.

Everybody's waiting for springtime
Many people are waiting for a brighter and more hopeful future, but you can find meaning and beauty even in the darkest of times.

Well winter can be cozy too
Despite its harshness and difficulties, winter can offer its own unique comforts and joys.
