I think the lyrics to this song are beautiful. And the way the song takes you through a simple story to bring across such a complex message is brilliant. Two simple characters deliver a weighted message. The message that it's not your physical appearance, how invulnerable you appear, your physical height, that makes you tall. It's how you feel about yourself, how tall you feel, that really matters. It delivers the message that the only way to be short is if you let the world make you feel short. The lyrics "Just looking for some answers in a world that answers none of them at all. I'll say hi, but not reply to the letters that you write because I've found some peace of mind," deliver the final message, that is no one else can tell you how to live your life. And once you put aside what everyone else thinks, you can find the answers that you are looking for.
