Drag Days
Navigating Life's Drag Days: A Guided Journey
Lyrics
Drag days are not too bad but move too slow
Drag days are tolerable but they progress slowly.
I file them, I want them not to linger so
I organize or handle them, wishing they wouldn't last.
Now we come to drag days
We're entering a period of time characterized by dragging or slow days.
Now we come to drag days
Reiteration emphasizing the arrival of these dragging days.
Fake capes baby, they're too hard to wear
Metaphorically referring to burdensome situations that are challenging to bear.
Put them on and everyone will stare
If we try to deal with these burdens, they attract attention or scrutiny from others.
We have come to drag days
Highlighting the presence or arrival of these difficult times.
We have come to drag days
Reiteration emphasizing the arrival or existence of these challenging days.
We escape them sometimes
Occasionally we manage to avoid these difficult times.
When things are different, more intensified
When circumstances change dramatically or become more intense, we can escape them.
We escape them within the walls
We find ways to evade these tough times within the confines of our emotional vulnerability.
Of our fidgety hearts where we hide
Our emotional cores, where we conceal our true feelings, serve as a shelter from these hardships.
Way on out beyond the factory yards
Describing a distant place, far from the daily grind of work environments.
Up and over the security guards
Overcoming obstacles or barriers meant to prevent passage.
We have come to drag days
Emphasizing the occurrence or existence of these dragging days.
We have come to drag days
Reiteration emphasizing the arrival or existence of these challenging days.
We escape them sometimes
Occasionally finding ways to avoid these challenging times.
When things are different, more intensified
When circumstances change dramatically or become more intense, we can escape them.
We escape them within the walls
We find ways to evade these tough times within the confines of our emotional vulnerability.
Of our fidgety hearts where we hide
Our emotional cores, where we conceal our true feelings, serve as a shelter from these hardships.
They will turn around
Expectation or hope for a change in circumstances or events.
They will turn around
Reiteration emphasizing an anticipated turnaround or change in the situation.
