Better Days
Cambriana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Once again
Take your time and decide which ones were worth
All the fights
That is all that i ask
Summer knows you the best
That i wrote
Move your heart sing it, burn it in you mind
Once again
And now that you want me
I waste my love
And now that you know me
I waste my love
Let me tell you, i've seen better days
(we could make it work
Better turn me up)
That is all that i ask
Some believe it's a test
That is all that i ask
Summer knows you the best
And now that you want me
I waste my love
And now that you know me
I waste my love
And no more falling back
Let me tell i've seen better days
Better days
Better days
The lyrics to Cambriana's Better Days speak to the idea of moving on from one's troubled past and looking towards a brighter future. The opening lines suggest that the listener has been carrying their problems with them for some time, but now it's time to let them go and move forward. The repetition of "once again" reinforces the idea that this is a process they may have attempted before, but it's one that they can try again.
The second stanza seems to address the act of creating something meaningful from that pain. The singer implores the listener to take their time and carefully choose which experiences are worth holding onto and turning into something positive. The image of color-coded words suggests that these experiences might be difficult to parse out and understand, but can ultimately lead to healing and growth. The lines "move your heart, sing it, burn it in your mind" encourage the listener to fully embrace their emotions and the creative process.
The chorus shifts the focus to a romantic relationship, with the singer saying they "waste their love" now that the other person wants them. This could suggest that the singer has moved on and isn't interested in rekindling that relationship. The final line "let me tell you, I've seen better days" suggests that even though things may not have worked out, the singer has hope for a brighter future.
Overall, the lyrics to Better Days encourage the listener to let go of their past and embrace new beginnings, both creatively and romantically.
Line by Line Meaning
Once you let in the troubles from your past
You need to confront and deal with the issues from your past
Once again
This is an ongoing process that needs to be repeated
Take your time and decide which ones were worth
You need to evaluate which past struggles are worth fighting for
All the fights
You need to determine which battles are worth fighting for
That is all that i ask
This is the only favor I am asking of you
Summer knows you the best
The summertime best reflects your true self
So once you learn every color coded word
Once you fully understand my message
That i wrote
The words that I have written
Move your heart sing it, burn it in your mind
Let the words penetrate your heart and mind
And now that you want me
Now that you desire my love
I waste my love
I have given so much love to those who did not appreciate it
And now that you know me
Now that you understand who I am
Let me tell you, i've seen better days
I have experienced happier and more fulfilling times in my life
(we could make it work
If we work together
Better turn me up)
We need to increase our effort and attention to make it work
Some believe it's a test
Certain people view life's challenges as tests of their character
And no more falling back
We must move forward and not retreat back into old habits
Better days
Happier times are ahead
Better days
Happier times are ahead
