Better Tomorrow, Today
Walking in Worn Soles: Unveiling Life's Meaning in 'Better Tomorrow, Today'
Lyrics
They say you can tell
They say the character of a person can be assessed
A man by his shoes
By observing the condition of his shoes
But what does it mean
Raising a question about the significance of
When the soles are worn through
Worn-out soles and what it implies
I always made a point
Expressing a habitual act of paying attention
Of listening to you
To the words of someone else
In case you say something great
Anticipating profound or noteworthy statements
She says keep me warm
Quoting a plea for warmth due to feeling cold
Coz I'm starting to shake
Expressing vulnerability and shivering
And I'm not too sure
Doubting the ability to endure further challenges
How much more I can take
Choosing to engage in conversation to distract and comfort
I just keep her talking
Maintaining dialogue to keep someone awake and engaged
While she's still awake
Linking these actions to the aspiration for a better future
A better tomorrow, today
Highlighting the desire for improvement in the present
All these years we've been under a cloud
Reflecting on a prolonged period of difficulty or gloom
Can you believe it?
Expressing disbelief at a positive change
The sun's coming out
Celebrating the emergence of favorable circumstances
Words don't appear when we open our mouths
Noticing the challenge of expressing oneself verbally
It hurts a lot less that way
Suggesting that silence can alleviate pain
I don't mean all the things that I say
Admitting to not genuinely meaning everything said
I don't keep all the promises I make
Acknowledging the difficulty in keeping promises
Do you find it hard to throw things away?
Asking if it's challenging to let go of possessions
A better tomorrow, today
Reiterating the hope for a brighter future in the present
