The Days
Nostalgic Reflections: Maximus KQ's 'The Days' Unveils Love's Evolution
Lyrics
Those were the days
Expressing nostalgia for a past period.
With you by my side those were the days
Highlighting the positive memories when the person was together with a significant other.
I had my ride or die
Referring to a deep and loyal connection with someone (ride or die).
No other way
Indicating a commitment with no alternative paths.
Believe me I tried
Expressing effort in trying to make things work.
Those were the days
Reiterating the sentiment of the past being better.
Those were the days
Repetition for emphasis on the significance of those days.
Now I gotta plan
Shifting focus to the present and the need for a new plan.
To open your eyes with my hands
Expressing a desire to make the other person see the truth.
A gift to the blind no other man
Describing a unique and valuable gift to help the other person understand.
Would give you the time of day
Expressing surprise that the other person never gave attention before.
Those were the days
Recalling the positive aspects of the past.
I loved you more than you will ever know
Expressing intense love beyond the other person's understanding.
So much that it might be a crime to show
Suggesting that the depth of love may be hidden due to potential consequences.
But now I finally see what went wrong
Acknowledging a realization of mistakes or issues in the relationship.
If it's one sided I should be alone
Considering being alone if the love is not reciprocated.
Look where we started now we're six feet deep
Reflecting on a dramatic turn in the relationship, possibly a breakup.
I never thought you'd be the one to bury me
Expressing surprise that the significant other is causing harm.
My puzzles broken only got one piece
Metaphorically describing a broken situation with only a fragment remaining.
So I wrote a couple songs to feel complete
Using songwriting as a way to find completeness in a broken situation.
Those were the days
Reiteration of the positive memories of the past.
With you by my side those were the days
Recalling the positive times when the person was a supportive partner.
I had my ride or die
Reaffirming the loyalty and deep connection with the significant other.
No way
Emphasizing the exclusivity of the commitment.
Believe me I tried
Asserting the effort made to salvage the relationship.
Those were the days
Reiterating the sentiment that the past was better.
Those were the days
Repetition for emphasis on the significance of those days.
Now I gotta plan
Returning to the present and the need for a new plan.
To open your eyes with my hands
Expressing determination to make the other person see the truth.
A gift to the blind no other man
Describing a unique and valuable gift to help the other person understand.
Would give you the time of day
Reiterating surprise that the other person never gave attention before.
Those were the days
Recalling the positive aspects of the past.
I loved you more than you will ever know
Expressing intense love beyond the other person's understanding.
So much that it might be a crime to show
Suggesting that the depth of love may be hidden due to potential consequences.
But now I finally see what went wrong
Acknowledging a realization of mistakes or issues in the relationship.
If it's one sided I should be alone
Considering being alone if the love is not reciprocated.
Those were the days
Reiteration of the positive memories of the past.
Those were the days
Repetition for emphasis on the significance of those days.
Those were the days
-Those were the days
