That's one perspective.
While the song is technically upbeat, personally I don't feel it's uplifting, and much less cheerful. Not gloomy either, but there's some anxiety on the voice.
Adding the lyrics, I would say it's hopeful in a tense situation.
My guess is they were trying for a middle ground, while keeping fripSide's style as best within the song's intention.
Once again, this is just my opinion, but I feel the ending song is more cheerful than the opening... and fairly less tense.
