its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
I pray and hope that we'll see the sun
Who do you seek to lie beside you?
Smoke circulates your reason
I wish for the morning to blanket me and cover you
A mere wish can no longer keep me from praying
A mere wish can no longer keep me here
Yesterday and days before (Yesterday and days before)
Faces I don't see anymore (Yesterday and days before)
I can't stop the way we change, (Yesterday and days before)
but I'm not sorry...I'm not sorry anymore
Has her heart been broken?
She needs the shelter of her shroud,
a pulse, the cradle and the salt to trickle down
The moon to guide her within the hall
The morning to awaken her
I'm not her miracle anymore (x2)
Yesterday and days before (Yesterday and days before)
Faces I don't see anymore (Yesterday and days before)
I can't stop the way we change, (Yesterday and days before)
but I'm not sorry anymore
I'm not sorry - the sun will rise again
What would you do if you only lived in the dark
with no one to kiss you and tell you goodnight?
When will I realize that I can't relive yesterday?
When will I remember memories last forever?
Yesterday and days before
Faces I don't see anymore
I can't stop the way we change,
but I'm not sorry, no, I'm not sorry anymore
I'm not sorry, no (x2)
The sun will rise again, yeah
Who do you seek to lie beside you?
Smoke circulates your reason
I wish for the morning to blanket me and cover you
A mere wish can no longer keep me from praying
A mere wish can no longer keep me here
Yesterday and days before (Yesterday and days before)
Faces I don't see anymore (Yesterday and days before)
I can't stop the way we change, (Yesterday and days before)
but I'm not sorry...I'm not sorry anymore
Has her heart been broken?
She needs the shelter of her shroud,
a pulse, the cradle and the salt to trickle down
The moon to guide her within the hall
The morning to awaken her
I'm not her miracle anymore (x2)
Yesterday and days before (Yesterday and days before)
Faces I don't see anymore (Yesterday and days before)
I can't stop the way we change, (Yesterday and days before)
but I'm not sorry anymore
I'm not sorry - the sun will rise again
What would you do if you only lived in the dark
with no one to kiss you and tell you goodnight?
When will I realize that I can't relive yesterday?
When will I remember memories last forever?
Yesterday and days before
Faces I don't see anymore
I can't stop the way we change,
but I'm not sorry, no, I'm not sorry anymore
I'm not sorry, no (x2)
The sun will rise again, yeah

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
