Somedays
Navigating Life's Rollercoaster: Meredith Brooks' 'Somedays' Tale
Lyrics
Some days goes your way
Expressing that some days go well and favorably.
You're on a roll you can't explain
Feeling positive and successful without clear reasons.
And then it all goes down the drain
Experiencing a sudden downturn or unfortunate events.
Your cat's hit by a car
Encountering a personal tragedy involving a pet.
The ATM eats your card
Facing a problem with a banking transaction.
You're wondering what changed from yesterday
Reflecting on the contrast between good and bad days.
Save me from, from going mental
Seeking salvation from potential mental distress.
Save me from just spinning out
Desiring relief from emotional turmoil and confusion.
Some days are better than lovers
Comparing some days to positive romantic experiences.
Some days you just can't figure out
Expressing the difficulty of understanding certain days.
Some days you can't explain
Acknowledging the inability to clarify or make sense of certain situations.
My best friend and me one night
Narrating a conflict between the singer and her best friend during a night out.
Were drinkin' at Pete's on Crescent Height
Setting the scene of the disagreement at a specific location.
Just like that we end up in a fight
Describing an abrupt escalation into a fight with the friend.
Like a yo-yo up and down
Using a yo-yo metaphor to illustrate the unpredictable nature of life's ups and downs.
You're headin' north, you end up south
Experiencing unexpected and contradictory directions in life.
Save me from, from going mental
Reiterating the plea for help in maintaining mental stability.
Save me from just spinning out
Expressing a desire to avoid spiraling into negative thoughts.
Some days are better than lovers
Comparing some days to positive romantic experiences (repeated theme).
Some days you just can't figure out
Reiterating the challenge of understanding specific days.
Some days are better than others
Highlighting the variability in the quality of different days.
You can't explain some days away
Acknowledging the difficulty in explaining or rationalizing certain days.
Someday
Repeating the word "someday" as a contemplative expression.
Save me from, from going mental
Seeking assistance in avoiding mental distress (repeated theme).
Save me from spinning out
Emphasizing the need to prevent spiraling into negative thoughts (repeated theme).
Some days are better
Stating that some days are better than others.
Some days are never
Indicating that some days are never good.
Some days, whatever
Using "whatever" to convey a sense of indifference towards certain days.
Some days are better than lovers
Reiterating the comparison of some days to positive romantic experiences.
Some days you just can't figure out
Reiterating the challenge of understanding specific days (repeated theme).
Some days are better than others
Highlighting the variability in the quality of different days (repeated theme).
Some days you just can't get out
Expressing difficulty in escaping or moving past certain days.
Someday...
Repeating the contemplative expression "someday."
