Lyrics
The day
The beginning of the day.
Has only began
A statement that the day has just started.
And I
The speaker reflects on their current situation.
Already know how it ends
An anticipation that the outcome of the day is already known.
So I
The speaker decides to start the day.
Get out of bed
The action of getting out of bed is taken.
With
A transitional line.
My hands clenched
The speaker wakes up with tension or anxiety.
I promised you I won't
A commitment not to do something.
But promises were broke
An acknowledgment that promises have been broken.
And I'm not all that good, you see
The speaker admits their shortcomings.
And you're still better than me
An acknowledgment that the other person is superior or more successful.
Time
A reflection on the concept of time.
Is so subjective
An observation that time is subjective.
So I'll
The speaker accepts any method available.
Take whatever method
Willingness to adopt any approach suggested.
You say
A statement expressing skepticism about the effectiveness of a suggested method.
"This doesn't fix a thing"
An acknowledgment that the suggested method may not solve the issue.
But it's my only suppressant
Recognition that the suggested method is the only form of relief.
Within my discretion
A decision made within the speaker's judgment.
I promised you I won't
A repeated commitment not to do something.
But promises were broke
A reminder of broken promises.
And I'm not all that good, you see
A repetition of the speaker's shortcomings.
And you're still doing better than me
A reaffirmation that the other person is more successful or superior.
