Your Day Will Come
Embrace Redemption: Your Day Will Come
Lyrics
It's a long long way to home again,
Expressing the distance and difficulty in returning home.
Carryin' a heavy load.
Metaphorically carrying a burdensome weight or responsibility.
Wake God's child before the dawn,
Encouraging awakening or realization before challenges.
Pure as a pot o' gold.
Symbolizing purity with the comparison to a pot of gold.
And when you go to sleep at night,
Asking about experiences during sleep, specifically encountering demons.
Tell me whether demons come
Questioning the impact of negative influences during sleep.
And drag you down with both hands
Imagery of being dragged into a challenging or harsh situation.
To where it's hotter than the burnin' sun.
Describing a difficult and intense place or experience.
How far can you run?
Pondering the limits of escaping challenges or problems.
When the darkness falls around me,
Describing the arrival of darkness and the auditory experience of wind.
I can hear the wind blow.
Perceiving a mournful sound in the wind, associated with a troubled soul.
Wailin' through the pine tree,
Describing a ghostly presence tied to inner struggles.
Ghost of a troubled soul.
Reflecting the concept of karma, suggesting consequences for actions.
Everything that goes around,
Warning against waiting for redemption as it may not support you.
Comes around in time.
Emphasizing the cyclical nature of life's events.
Don't wait on redemption,
Advising against relying on redemption for support.
It's never gonna take your side!
Empty line, no specific meaning implied.
How long can you hide?
-Blackbird on a high wire,
Referring to a witness silenced by fear, possibly due to a troubling experience.
Afraid of what he saw.
Reiterating the question about encountering demons during sleep.
Named their only witness,
Imagining a soul being dragged into a difficult situation during sleep.
He won't sing any more.
Pondering the limitations of escaping challenges during sleep.
And when you go to sleep at night,
Empty line, no specific meaning implied.
Tell me whether demons come,
Expressing the inevitability of facing one's day of reckoning.
And drag your soul down below
Reiteration of the certainty that the day of reckoning will arrive.
How far can you run?
Anticipating the arrival of a significant, transformative day.
Soon your day will come!
Conveying the assurance that everyone will face their moment of reckoning.
Soon your day will come!
Reaffirming the inevitability of facing consequences or a transformative moment.
