The Upsetter Lyrics

Some will say
This place is wrong
These hands are fast
This face is long

Stop upsetting yourself
Upsetting your thoughts
Upsetting this world
That you’re standing on

These plans are torn
These feet are cold
This shield is worn
This peace was stolen

Stop upsetting yourself
Upsetting your thoughts
Upsetting this world
That you’re standing on

These problems they breathe
Their fire is real
The coins that they keep
You cannot steal
Even when you’re asleep
They’ll be here still
Breathing out or in

Some will say this place is gone
These roads are steep
And much too long
These plans are cheap
My feet are cold
Cut the knot
These coins are golden
Some will say this place is gone
These roads are steep
And much too long
These plans are cheap
My feet are cold
Cut the knot
These coins are golden

Stop upsetting yourself
Upsetting your thoughts
Upsetting this world
That you’re standing on

These problems they breathe
Their fire is real
The coins that they keep
You cannot steal
Even when you’re asleep
They’ll be here still
Breathing out or in

To me, this song is saying that big problems are in life and they're going to be there no matter what. You just have to tell yourself to stop getting so upset about the things because you have all the time to resolve it. Be the positive on the upset world.

I think this is about being happy with what you have. His reference to a dragon and its coins taunt you, but trying to get it would result in your own destruction.
