Tomorrow Is Yesterday
Embrace Tomorrow's Shadow: Navigating Life's Illusions
Lyrics
Let yourself be tomorrow
Encouragement to embrace the future
Tomorrow is yesterday
Suggesting that the future becomes the past
So show me the way to get out of this world
Seeking guidance on escaping the challenges of the present world
I'll be the one that fades away (right)
Expressing a willingness to fade away or disappear
You give it, you give it
Highlighting a cycle of giving and taking, possibly reflecting life's uncertainties
You get it, you get it
-You give it, you give it
-And then they take it away
-You give it and they take it away
-You get it and they take it away
-Let yourself be tomorrow
Reiteration of the theme of embracing the future while anticipating fading away
Tomorrow is yesterday
-So show me a way to get out of this world
-I'll be the one that fades away
-Let yourself be tomorrow
-Tomorrow is yesterday
-So show me a way to get out of this world
-I'll be the one that fades away (right)
-You see it, you see it
Emphasizing the act of seeing or understanding and then having it taken away or stolen
You take it, you take it
-You see it, you see it
-And then they steal it away
-Don't you realize that you can't win
Realization that one may not triumph because the starting point is also the endpoint
Cause the place you begin is the place you must end
-Right! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Exclamations possibly signifying determination or affirmation
Right! Right! Right! Right!
-Let yourself be tomorrow
Repeating the call to embrace the future and find an escape from the world, echoing fading away
Tomorrow is yesterday
-So show me a way to get out of this world
-I'll be the one that fades away
-Let yourself be tomorrow
-Tomorrow is yesterday
-So show me a way to get out of this world
-I'll be the one that fades away
-Let yourself be tomorrow
Continuation of the theme with a plea for guidance in transcending the current reality
Tomorrow is yesterday
-So show me a way to get out of this world
-I'll be the one that fades away
-Yeah!
Expression of agreement or acknowledgment
You give it, you give it
Reiteration of the cycle of giving and taking, underlining the inevitability of loss
You get it, you get it
-You give it, you give it
-And then they take it away
-Don't you realize that you can't win
Reiterating the idea that success is elusive, as one's starting point determines the outcome
Cause the place you begin is the place you must end
-Right! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Additional emphatic exclamations, possibly reinforcing determination or frustration
Right! Right! Right! Right!
-Right! Right! Right!
