Best Day Until Tomorrow
Seize the Day: Triumph over Adversity in 'Best Day Until Tomorrow'
Lyrics
Enjoy what'chas got, not what you have not
Appreciate what you currently possess, rather than focusing on what you lack
'tis a weak heart lamenting with sorrow
Expressing a lament from a feeble heart filled with sorrow
When the days seem cursed, it could always be worse
Even in challenging times, there's always a possibility for things to be worse
Fight depression with sword and arrow
Suggesting a proactive approach to combat depression, using a metaphor of fighting with a sword and arrow
When the zeppelinous clouds of trouble abound
When troubles surround you like ominous clouds
And thunder is clapping and lightning strikes ground
Describing a tumultuous situation with thunder and lightning
Just when yer thinking this may be your last
At the point where you may feel that the current situation is dire
Throw a lash 'round the mast, hold fast!
Encouragement to persevere and hold on during tough times, using the metaphor of securing oneself to a mast
When the world ain't right, and it smithes ye with strife
When the world feels wrong and brings hardship
Ye can now buckle down, it's a test they call life
Suggesting facing challenges as a test known as life
Very soon you will see what kind of animal you'd be
Anticipating self-discovery during challenging times
Taking the bite outta life
Taking the negativity out of life
When they're testing the gallows, yer hung like a dog
Metaphorically describing facing severe consequences, like being hung, with resilience
Or they're marching us out to a firing squad
Facing dire situations, such as marching to a firing squad, with a positive mindset
We just smile and recall all the good times we had
Recalling and cherishing good times during difficult moments
It's the best 'til tomorrow It's the best day 'til tomorrow
Emphasizing that the present is the best day until tomorrow
No considering surrender when yer down in the dregs
Discouraging surrender, especially when things are at their worst
If ye look down and notice you still have your legs
Finding solace in the fact that you still have your legs, despite challenges
So stand up and fight you just might seize the day
Encouraging resilience and fighting back in the face of adversity
It's the best day 'til tomorrow
Reiterating the idea that today is the best day until tomorrow
