The Bad Hair Day
Waiting for Tomorrow: Embracing Life's Slow Dance
Lyrics
Nothing ever gets better when you just
Expresses dissatisfaction with waiting for improvement.
Wait around
Highlighting the inaction of waiting around for change.
But I don't mind
Indicates a patient and accepting attitude despite waiting.
I'll wait a while more
Willingness to continue waiting for a positive outcome.
Dishes in the kitchen sink are piling up and
Not bothered by the increasing pile of dishes in the sink.
I don't see the rush
Downplaying the urgency of dealing with the kitchen mess.
They're not going anywhere
Objects in the kitchen won't change or disappear.
And neither am I
Equating personal stagnation with the stationary dishes.
Seventeen seemed so long ago
Reflecting on the perception of time passing quickly.
How many years do we have left
Pondering the limited time left in life.
Kiss and hug me all you want
Desiring affection, but acknowledging its inability to turn back time.
We'll never get those days back
Regret over irreversible loss of certain moments.
Curls hang down to protect my eyes from the
Using curls to shield from unpleasant realities.
Things i don't want to see
Acknowledging the existence of unwelcome sights.
But I still see through
Seeing through the protective facade despite attempts.
Time to cut them all off again
Contemplating a change by cutting off the curls.
Lipstick stains on my pillowcase look as dried out as me
Comparing the appearance of lipstick stains to emotional dryness.
My mascara
Noticing a lack of emotional expression in mascara.
Doesn't run like it used toy
Highlighting a change in mascara behavior over time.
Happiness won't come to me
Recognizing that happiness is elusive when not true to oneself.
When I'm not who I should be
Linking personal change to the possibility of happiness.
Nothing ever seems to change at all
Expressing frustration at the perceived lack of progress.
Who's ideas was it anyway
Rhetorical questioning of the decision to face another day.
To wake up again today
Expressing a desire to confront those responsible for waking up.
I'd like to
Expressing the intention to share one's dissatisfaction.
Give them a piece of my mind
Desire to voice discontent with the current situation.
Maybe ill just wake up one day and everything'll be fine
Hopeful anticipation for a future where everything is fine.
I'll keep on waiting, waiting for my time
Commitment to continue waiting for the right time.
