One Day

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One day I'll be grown up you'll still be in my head
I'll be all broken up and left to rot in bed
One day I'll panic think that I was never good
And think of all the things I woulda coulda should
One day I'll not wake up
One day I'll be gone
The last thing you'll hear from me
Are the verses of this song
One day
One day I won't smoke
Three packs of cigarettes
Cause I'll have things
To be happy about
Discard my regrets
One day I'll call you
Allow all the truths
Even though it's much too late and
All the points are moot
One day I won't wake up
With a headful of cement
Knowing I must've got kicked out
Of every place that I went
One day
It'll be different
One day
It will change
Is one day far away
Is one day the only way
One day's not yesterday
It's only a day away
Does one day even matter
Do you think I'll be okay
What would I do if
You gave me just one
Thought
Cross your fingers
Untie the knot
One pulse
A little shiver
Pull the trigger
One day I'll be different
One day I'll change
One day
One day it'll be different
I know that somehow things have
To change
One day it will all be different




I swear I think I can change
One day....
