Another Day in Paradise
Humanity's Blind Eye: Another Day in a Forgotten World
Lyrics
She calls out to the man on the street
She seeks help from a man on the street
'Sir, can you help me?
Politely asks, "Sir, can you help me?"
It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep,
Expresses being cold and homeless
Is there somewhere you can tell me?'
Inquires if there's a place for shelter
He walks on, doesn't look back
The man ignores her and continues walking
He pretends he can't hear her
Pretends not to hear her plea
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Whistles and crosses the street, seeming embarrassed
Seems embarrassed to be there
Shows discomfort about being in that situation
Oh think twice, it's another day for you and me in paradise
Encourages reflection, suggesting another challenging day in the world
Oh think twice, 'cause it's just another day for you,
Reiterates that it's just another day, urging consideration
You and me in paradise, think about it
Asks to think about the reality of the situation
She calls out to the man on the street
Repeats the plea to the man on the street
He can see she's been crying
Observes her tears, indicating distress
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet
Notes blisters on her feet from walking
She can't walk but she's trying
Despite difficulty, she persists in trying to walk
Oh think twice, 'cause it's another day for you and me in paradise
Reiterates that it's another challenging day
Oh think twice, it's just another day for you,
Reemphasizes that it's just another day in a difficult situation
You and me in paradise, think about it
Encourages continued contemplation of the situation
Oh Lord, is there nothing more anybody can do
Appeals to a higher power for additional help
Oh Lord, there must be something you can say
Expresses a hope for divine guidance or intervention
You can tell from the lines on her face
Suggests that her experiences are visible on her face
You can see that she's been there
Points out that she has likely faced rejection before
Probably been moved on from every place
Implies she has been displaced from various places
Cause she didn't fit in there
Due to not fitting in, she has moved on from places
Oh think twice, 'cause another day for you and me in paradise
Reiterates the challenging nature of the day
Oh think twice, it's just another day for you,
Stresses the recurring difficulty of daily life
You and me in paradise, just think about it, think about it
Urges continued reflection on the situation
It's just another day for you and me in paradise
Repeats that it's just another challenging day
It's just another day for you and me in paradise, paradise
Emphasizes the repetitive nature of hardship
It's just another day for you and me in paradise
Reiterates that it's just another difficult day
It's just another day for you and me in paradise, paradise
Continues to stress the recurring nature of challenges
It's just another day for you and me
Highlights that each day poses difficulties
It's just another day for you and me
Affirms the ongoing struggle in daily life
It's just another day for you and me in paradise
Repeats that each day is a challenge in paradise
In paradise
Concludes by reiterating the ongoing struggle in paradise
