Love this song. Just heard it today, I absolutely love it. I wrote down the lyrics on the back of a poster to help find homes for 2 cats I know. I'm showing it to my teacher tomorrow, because we have an assignment, to recite a poem. I'm just going to recite the lyrics to this song. I won't be surprised if I start giggling afterwards, when reciting the poem.
This song has lots of meanings...
In the first paragraph, it seems like he's asking the person if he/she is happy where they are, in their position, and how it feels like to be there.
The chorus, is practically self explanatory. He is telling everyone to share their 'secrets' or their regrets. He wants them to tell him their secrets so he can say "Don't make the mistakes that they made for a lifetime
Just don't make the mistakes that they did" to them.
The second verse, he is encouraging them to 'aim for the heavens', meaning, to set your goals to high standards. He is saying that they should let themselves go. That they make a difference in the world. He is saying that they can do whatever they wanted. And that we were made for a reason, that we are here today for a reason.
The third verse... He is saying that things will always go wrong. No matter how much you try for it to not, it will. He is saying though that it's okay to have your alone time, and that the world won't bother you when you need it.
Then he says to them, that they will try again, but they will set higher goals.
"Redesign the past, go back" he means, they can change the past if they accept it.

This is from my view.
