I like the simple truth of this line, wolf. It puts the job of learning how to enjoy life back onto the person who feels discontented by it.

The best way to die would be drowning in the grass,
Slowly sinking into the world.
But for now I’ve resurfaced, there’s distance ahead
And I’m happy treading Earth.
Lovely stanza...my favorite in your song. "Treading Earth"...that's a beautiful metaphor for having the energy and drive to keep living and not give up.

I like the imagery in this stanza a lot because of your metaphor's physicality. I had never thought of treading Earth before. Now when I go outside in the morning and see the grass and soil, I'll be imagining swimming through it with my head thankfully still up in the air.
