The Only Day
Journey Through Transient Spaces: The Only Day's Profound Echo
Lyrics
I am traveling through rooms and constellations
I am navigating through various spaces and celestial configurations
Dancing over broken mirrors
Dancing metaphorically over shattered reflections
Shouting my name into cathedrals of transient space
Proclaiming my identity in vast, temporary cathedral-like spaces
Where we are trafficking in memory
Engaged in the trade of memories
And the future is a loop of a dirty picture
The future is a recurring cycle of unsettling images
Speculations on markets of unknown currency
Speculations on markets with unknown values
Every page unwritten, every breath new
Every page of life is yet to be written, each breath brings something new
So oh my love, Please don’t cry
Expressing a plea to a loved one: Please don't cry
I’ll be there when I get there
I will be there when I arrive
Still there are ghosts in my bones
Despite moving forward, memories of the past linger
Shadows and ashes
References to lingering shadows and remnants of the past
Fragmented pieces of you that visit me in my sleep
Fragments of a person continue to visit in dreams
I dreamed I offered you a ride, for old time’s sake
Recounting a dream where an offer is made out of nostalgia
Your pink fingers pressed against my back,
Visualizing a tactile connection through the description of fingers
the other hand around my waist
A physical closeness described through a dream sequence
You’re always here like a rubber band , pushing pulling
Comparing a presence to a rubber band, exerting push and pull forces
But here in this hotel room is the only truth I can hold on to
Asserting that the only truth is found in the present, particularly in a hotel room
Now, not never
Emphasizing the importance of the current moment over never or later
Not yesterday, not tomorrow
Rejecting the significance of both past and future, focusing on now
Not same, not different
Rejecting binary distinctions, emphasizing the lack of sameness or difference
Not lost, not found
Rejecting notions of being lost or found
‘Cause today is the only day
Stating that today is the only day of importance
