Lyric discussion by elsasparklesa 

I listened to the radio cast John Mayer did earlier this week on Sophie's show, and he debuted the whole album, song by song. About this one, he said he wanted to write a song about overcoming fears, so I think it's a testimony to how you're terrified to move forward, but you know that you've made it this far and you've just got to keep going, even though you aren't entirely sure where you're going (line re: I've got a hammer, but which walls to smash?) Like, there's a ton of uncertainty, but you've got faith in your self and your abilities, so overall there's a positive tone.
