These Days
Chasing Happiness Through Life's Pages
Lyrics
What's this life anyway?
Questioning the essence and purpose of life
What's it to you and me?
Asking about the significance of life for individuals
What's it to anyone?
Questioning the importance of life for everyone universally
Who are we supposed to be?
Querying about societal expectations of identity
Make me a storybook
Desire for an idealized, story-like existence
Write me away from here
Wishing to escape current circumstances
I need a different now
Longing for a different present moment
Where we can wear each other for awhile
Desire for emotional connection and intimacy
I'll lend you my tears if I could borrow a smile
Willingness to exchange emotions (tears, smile) for mutual support
I'll get through tomorrow somehow today
Hope to cope with the challenges of today to achieve happiness in the future
Happy After
Aspiration for a joyful future
Once upon these days
Reflecting on past times, suggesting nostalgia
There's four roads to anywhere
Options or paths available in life
Four ways to everything
Diverse approaches to various aspects of existence
We were unbreakable
Belief in being invincible or unbreakable
We spoke our destiny
Having control over one's fate or future
Let's take a moment out
Proposing exploration of uncharted territories
Go were we never go
Advocating for creation of a new reality or experience
Let's make a new world now
[Empty line]
Where we can wear each other for awhile
Desire for emotional closeness and empathy
I'll lend you my tears if I could borrow your smile
Offering emotional support in exchange for mutual happiness
We'll get through tomorrow somehow today
Hope to overcome present difficulties for a better tomorrow
Happy After
Desire for happiness in the future
Once upon these days
Recalling past times nostalgically
Then one day we'll find
Anticipating reflection on current times in the future
when we're looking back at this time
Contemplating on looking back at the present from a distant future
Wondering how we've come so far from this
Wondering about the drastic changes from the present moment to the future
When we close our eyes
Suggesting introspection or reflection
What's this life anyway
Repeating the initial question about the essence of life
What's it to you and me
Reiterating the inquiry about the importance of life
What are we doing here
Questioning the purpose of existence
Who are we supposed to be
Asking about societal or personal identity expectations
I'll take a better world
Willingness to accept an improved reality
I'll take anything
Acceptance of any possibility or change
I'll take our little world now
Desire to create a personal or intimate world
Where we can wear each other for awhile
Desire for emotional connection and mutual support
I'll lend you my tears if I could borrow your smile
Offering emotional support for mutual happiness
We'll get through tomorrow somehow today
Hope for a better future despite present challenges
Happy After
Desire for future happiness
Once upon these days
Recalling past times nostalgically (repetition)
