Days of Grace Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Things just aren't what they used to be.
You have changed now; sold us all out.
Correct me if I'm wrong but this is how it seems to me.
But I guess you got just what you want
Got just what you want
And when that daylight ends will you still see your friends?
Sold your soul for a cellular phone.
Tomorrow just isn't what it used to be.
Because cells they do change when you push blood from the vein.
Out of sight, out of mind, out of sight
But I guess you got just what you want
Got just what you want
And when tomorrow comes will money light your sun?
And when that daylight ends will you still see your friends?
And when tomorrow comes will money light your sun?
And when that daylight ends will you still see your friends?
Orion!
Your belt is mine!
I will wear the night with pride!
Drowning!
Cold light falls like water from the sky!
And will I ever feel this way again?
Will the stars come crashing into one?
This is the place where your ghosts start living
And your walls disappear like they weren't there.
Ambition is the way that you lost sight of your hope.
And when tomorrow comes will money light your sun?
And when that daylight ends will you still see your friends?
The lyrics to Days of Grace's song 'Solaris' are packed with powerful social commentary and criticism. The song starts off with the singer hearing about someone on drive-time radio who doesn't seem to be the same anymore. The person in question has sold out and changed their ways, and the singer questions whether they will still be there for their friends when the money runs out. The lyrics also highlight the importance of living in the present instead of getting caught up in the pursuit of material wealth.
The chorus repeats the lines "And when tomorrow comes will money light your sun? And when that daylight ends will you still see your friends?" as a reminder that money cannot buy true happiness, and that people who prioritize material possessions over relationships will eventually find themselves alone. The allusion to the constellation of Orion also speaks to the constant pursuit of power and dominance that can drive people to lose sight of their true selves.
The bridge to the song references the idea that we are all haunted by our past mistakes and regrets, but it's important to let go of them in order to move forward. The final repetition of the chorus serves as a powerful reminder that no matter what happens in life, our relationships with others are ultimately what matter the most.
