Lyrics
Hey
Expression of attention or greeting
Why are you're standing so sadden
Questioning why the person is looking so sad
So weak and so down
Describing the person as physically and emotionally weak and low
Why? What's so harmful n caused the pain
Asking about the cause of pain and harm
This obvious grain
Referring to an obvious source of suffering
..cause tomorrow, your sorrow won't be gone
Emphasizing that the sorrow will persist into the future
..yeah tomorrow, yeah tomorrow you might be gone
Highlighting the possibility of the person being absent or gone tomorrow
Hey
Repetition of the greeting or attention
How'd you let them degrade you
Questioning how the person allowed themselves to be degraded
Your body's so weak
Commenting on the physical weakness of the person
Now, laying here with no self-pride
Describing the person as lacking self-pride and laying in a vulnerable state
Where're you gonna hide?
Asking where the person will hide from their troubles
..cause tomorrow, your sorrow won't be gone
Reiterating that sorrow will persist into the future
..cause tomorrow, yeah tomorrow you might be gone
Reinforcing the idea that the person might be gone or absent tomorrow
Full of deep grief
Describing a state of deep grief
Smashed into a reef
Metaphorically expressing being crushed or damaged
Waiting for relief day in day out...
Expressing a continuous wait for relief
Locked in a vault
Metaphorically describing being confined or trapped
Cause this is not your fault
Asserting that the situation is not the person's fault
The paved way won't come 'till your bailout
Stating that progress won't come until a bailout or rescue occurs
Hey
Repetition of the greeting or attention
So you finally woke up
Noting that the person has awakened to the truth
And saw through it all
Realization of the reality of the situation
Time, time to shed off the burden
Acknowledging the need to let go of a burden causing distress
which made you a wreck
Describing the burden as the cause of being a wreck
..cause tomorrow, as of from tomorrow there's no turning back
Emphasizing an irreversible change starting from tomorrow
And tomorrow … you'll walk along your path
Anticipating a new path or direction in life
