Tomorrow
Cōrt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Things aren't how they ought to be and
Time is passing by
A single raindrop fell out of the sky
Through the air into my eye
To remind me I'm alive
What do I feel
I don't know if it's real
The suns already up so I can go to bed at last
The flowers grow into the sky while
I wonder why I've wasted all my time
I slave away for some kind of glow
I search up, down, above, below, and I've
Got nothing to show
What does it mean
When the world loses all its green
This time, it goes so slow
And I'll be up all night thinking 'bout tomorrow

Line by Line Meaning
I look up to the stars and ask them why
I seek guidance from the vastness of the universe and question the purpose behind my circumstances
Things aren't how they ought to be and
The current state of affairs falls short of the ideal and
Time is passing by
Moments are slipping away
A single raindrop fell out of the sky
A solitary droplet descends from above
Through the air into my eye
En route, it connects with my eye
To remind me I'm alive
Serving as a reminder of my existence
What do I feel
Uncertainty envelops my emotions
I don't know if it's real
Genuine or illusory, I am unsure
This time, it goes so fast
The passing moments seem exceptionally swift
The suns already up so I can go to bed at last
As dawn arrives, I can finally find rest
The flowers grow into the sky while
Flora ascends toward the heavens while
I wonder why I've wasted all my time
I contemplate the reasons behind squandering my precious moments
I slave away for some kind of glow
I tirelessly toil in pursuit of an elusive radiance
I search up, down, above, below, and I've
I explore every conceivable direction, yet I
Got nothing to show
Have no tangible results to exhibit
What does it mean
What is the significance
When the world loses all its green
When the environment devoids itself of vitality
This time, it goes so slow
The passing moments now seem exceptionally sluggish
And I'll be up all night thinking 'bout tomorrow
I will spend sleepless nights pondering about the upcoming day
