The first verse is what wisdom says about life and accepting it leads to peace
The second verse (except the last line) is how society says you should live and accepting it leads to insanity and a wasted life
Breathe, breathe in the air: Pay attention to the breath it is the essence of life
don't be afraid to care: Who gives a shit what society thinks
leave but don't leave me: Forget the bullshit; Remember wisdom
look around, choose your own ground: Pay attention, check your options then make your own decisions
for long you live and high you fly: Be patient, you've got time and life can be awesome
and smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry: Emotions are part of life and you're human like everyone
and all your touch and all you see
is all your life will ever be: The five senses are what make life experiences
Run rabbit run: Keep yourself busy/distracted/occupied so you can forget about life
dig that hole, forget the sun: Work is most important
and when at last the work is done
don't sit down, it's time to dig another one: Don't take time to think or just be, keep working.
for long you live and high you fly
but only if you ride the tide: you need to live up to society's expectations
and balanced on the biggest wave
you race towards an early grave: you're spirit will die very early in life if you live like this.
