Today
Aim Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Day I've ever known
Can't live for tomorrow,
Tomorrow's much too long
I'll burn my eyes out
Before I get out
I wanted more
Bored by the chore
Of saving face
Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't wait for tomorrow
I might not have that long
I'll tear my heart out
Before I get out
Pink ribbon scars
That never forget
I tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings
Today is
Today is
Today is
The greatest day
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you
Today is the greatest
Today is the greatest day
Today is the greatest day
That I have ever really known
Aim's song "Today" is an introspective, emotional song that focuses on the power of the present moment. The lyrics express the singer's belief that today is the greatest day, better than any day before it or any day to come. The lyrics also suggest that the singer has lived a difficult life, with pink ribbon scars that never forget, and a desire to tear their heart out before getting out. The singer has experienced regret and pain, but still believes that today is a special, important day.
The song reflects the singer's feelings of being trapped in their own circumstances, wanting more from life than it can offer, and feeling restrained by wounds and regrets. The desire to turn someone on may refer to the desire to inspire others to also live in the moment, to see the beauty of the present and to overcome the struggles of the past.
In many ways, "Today" is a song about hope: hope that today can be special, hope that others can be moved to live in the moment, and hope that life can be better than it has been. The song is a powerful reminder that every day is a new opportunity, and that no matter what happens, there is always the chance for something great.
