Life After Hours - The Meaning

I've heard that this is how a great work is made
Every puzzle requires patience cause they mean more than words can say
I've heard that it's meant to reach some point of finality, but all the good stories I know don't ever end...
So as I look around, holding this light up to reality
I wonder if they'll comprehend that I never wanted to define or have them read between the lines
I never wanted anything, but to take a look inside
I've come to embrace uncertainty as a part of this whole ride
I care much less for answers than I care to ask "why?"
I've come to see quite clearly that it's not all black and white
Hold onto one another
These waves can beat you down
Step up with your brothers... or you'll drown in the sound
This is where things gets loud
This is when I speak out
This is where you search for all the meaning that can't be found
You want something tangible
You want something real
You want to know the ups and downs... want to learn the ins and outs
You want to know (need to know) what it's really all about
But what if I said that there's no way...
That trying to understand is like believing that there's no grey
The truth stares you in the face.. and it does not wish to be named
Too many play this game that still can't accept it for what it is
Maybe the color-scheme is far too vast
Maybe it's far too magnificent
Trying to piece it together
Too mesmerized to get a good grip
Always expecting some type of revelation about what it means to live
What's it really mean?
Sink into the rhythm of acceptance that there are pieces you simply do not have
This great work is going to require all your patience
It's just simple math
One piece at a time... and maybe I...
With this new rhythm can finally start to see that there could be more meaning within the abstract
I can be directionless and still know I'm on track
Guidance comes from within. I no longer need a map
So let's take a walk; no longer lost
No longer lost (no longer)
When you are void of the need to understand, that's when the pieces fall into your hands
