"I want my money back" and "the show" are both metaphors. The money represents time, while the show is representative of life. No matter what, in the end, we can't get back time, so her speeding through time and never enjoying events of everyday life is making life difficult. She caught in between getting through life with a keen direction, and with just loving where shes at in her life. When she realizes it in the end, she wants time back "I want my money back," she ends with "Just enjoy the show." Just enjoy your life and live for the day, simple I guess. Shes basically mocking the ritualistic acts of people to just want to get somewhere so badly in life that we miss out on the journey, getting caught upin life, and are unable to enjoy it fully.
Life was meant to be exciting, but fear imprisons us with warnings of, “Better be careful. Better take it easy. Don’t get your hopes up.” Well what good are hopes that are down? Low hopes never helped anyone achieve anything. I say let your hopes rise to the sky, and never let them falter. If we view everything with hesitancy, we will always be afraid to move forward, because there are no guarantees about anything. But how much better, at the end of life to be able to say, “I tried.” If you tried, you did not fail. The only real failure is not making an effort to make your dreams come true.
Like the quote says, it’s not about fearing death…it’s about living life–to the fullest. I can’t imagine anything sadder than to get to the end of life, and have regrets about things that you could have experienced. That’s not to say that we must do grand things,
