Old Tomorrows
Embrace Change: Breaking the Chains of Old Tomorrows
Lyrics
OLD TOMORROWS
Reflecting on past times or memories that have lost their potential
You are ready to take
Being prepared or willing to take action
But let me guess the mess
Trying to understand the chaos or disorder in a situation
You are not at all
Not in a good state or comfortable with the idea of being taken advantage of
Good with being taken
Uncomfortable with being manipulated or controlled by others
You're not willing to speak
Unwillingness to communicate or express thoughts/feelings
But let me tell you a fact
Presenting a fact or truth to the other person
It's way too late to shout
It's too late to protest or make noise about a situation when nobody is willing to listen or pay attention
When no one is there to listen
A lack of audience or support for one's grievances or concerns
I told you once
Previously mentioned something to the person
I told you twice
Repeatedly warned or advised the person
One day the river might run dry
A warning that resources or opportunities might eventually run out
So hold your breath, count 1 2 3
Prepare for a challenge or adverse situation
Dive into the water while it's deep
To engage deeply in a difficult situation
Rise or hit the ground below, hit the ground below
The choice between success and failure
Time to bleach old tomorrows, old tomorrows
Time to eliminate or erase past futile endeavors
It's up to us, to crack the rust,
It's our responsibility to overcome stagnation and revitalize with new energy
To soak up the young blood
Rejuvenate with the enthusiasm and energy of the youth
Rise or hit the ground below, hit the ground below
You are ready to break
Prepared to shatter or disrupt something
But let me guess the rest
Predicting the outcome or conclusion of a situation
You never thought you could
Underestimated one's own capability to be damaged or flawed
Be the broken
Being in a state of being fractured or damaged
Oh you're not ready to make
Not mentally prepared or willing to initiate change
The first step of change
The initial step towards transformation or alteration
One day it's too late
There comes a point where change is no longer feasible
Hearts won't open
Emotions or hearts become closed or unresponsive
I told you once
Repeatedly cautioned or warned the person
I told you twice
Continued to offer advice or warnings
When rage is covering all of your face
When anger consumes one's appearance
You'll be tied up by your veins
Feeling restrained or confined by one's own emotions
Your soul will hold you in disdain
Self-disapproval or self-hatred
Past can be so good at giving you nothing
The past has a tendency to offer nothing significant or beneficial
Young mistakers
People who often make mistakes when they are young
Old days chasers
Chasing after past moments or days that are no longer attainable
