One Day After Another
Journey Through Time: Embracing Life's Unpredictable Symphony
Lyrics
Isn't that strange, how one day follows another
Reflecting on the inevitability of consecutive days passing.
Like rain drops on your panes,
Comparing the continuity of days to raindrops on a windowpane.
Running out of time and running out of breath,
Feeling the pressure of time and the urgency of life.
You drop your dreams one after the other
Letting go of aspirations and ambitions one by one.
And there's no time to take it in, no no time to take it out,
Expressing the fast-paced nature of life with no time to reflect.
It's one breath right after another,
Highlighting the continuous flow of life, breath after breath.
And you lose your faith as you use yourself
Losing faith in oneself while navigating the challenges of life.
Cause the days go by, faster and faster.
Noticing the accelerating speed at which days pass by.
So Driver, stop that bus, I'm off at the next stop,
Metaphorically asking the driver to stop the bus, expressing a desire for a pause in life.
I need to take some time to lay it all down,
Expressing the need to take a break and contemplate life.
Hey Driver, I'm gettin' off, no I can't win the race,
Accepting the inability to win the race of life.
I'll just walk myself to that place where we all end up.
Choosing to walk the path that everyone eventually travels.
Isn't that strange how we can't keep up with the days,
Noting the challenge of keeping up with the passage of time.
And how one face replaces another,
Observing the constant change in faces and experiences.
And the names they change, and the stories they end,
Highlighting the cyclic nature of stories and their inevitable endings.
But it's the same words lover after lover
Emphasizing the repetition of words and experiences in different relationships.
And there's no time to remember, no no time to forget,
Stating the lack of time for both remembering and forgetting.
It's one step right after another,
Describing the continuous progression of life, step after step.
And you lose your cool as you lose your pride,
Feeling a loss of composure and pride with the decreasing length of days.
Cause your days, yeah, they're getting shorter
Acknowledging the diminishing time available in one's life.
So Driver, stop that bus, I'm off at the next stop,
Repeating the plea to the driver to stop the bus and allow for a pause.
I need to take some time to lay it all down,
Reiterating the need to take time to reflect and lay down burdens.
Hey Driver, I'm getting' off, yeah at the next stop
Expressing a determination to disembark from the relentless race of life.
I'll just walk myself to that place where we all end up.
Choosing the path of walking towards the inevitable destination shared by all.
Running out of future, and heavy with the past,
Feeling a sense of limitation in the future and weighed down by the past.
We drag ourselves, grab on to another..
Describing the struggle to move forward by holding on to the next experience.
So Driver, stop that bus, I'm off at the next stop,
Repeating the desire to stop the bus and take a break from life's rush.
And I need to take some time to lay it all down,
Reemphasizing the need to take time to reflect and release burdens.
Hey Driver, I'm getting' off, yeah at the next stop
Reiterating the decision to disembark and choose a different path.
I'll just walk myself to that place where we all end up.
Choosing to walk towards the shared destination of all individuals.
One day after the other
Summarizing the theme of the song, emphasizing the continuous progression of days.
