Day After Day
Gypsy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I spoke Death and said "not today"
Not your way
Only my way
I'll jump if I jump if I jump, okay
I smoke when I wanna
Eat what I crave
Drink with piranhas
All the good people living life for today
Open and honest are getting delayed
One by one
We take it day by day
Day by day
Livin' in the light
Livin' in the light, ey!
Livin' life for today
I ain't sorry that I'm late
I lost track of time
Taking in the beauty of the day
Reading every sign
Wishing that we could go back in time
And live life in the green
In the jungle in our prime
If alright with you
I got a lot of things I gotta make clear too
So buckle in, sweetie
We're goin' on a ride
But at the end we'll feel less fake inside
One by one
We take it day by day
Day by day
Livin' in the light
Livin' in the light, ey!
Livin' life for today
The song "Day After Day" by Gypsy is a reflection about living life on one's own terms and not conforming to societal expectations. The opening lines "It's my own funeral and I'm late/But I spoke Death and said 'not today'" are a powerful statement of defiance against death, indicating the singer's determination to live life to the fullest, even though they acknowledge that their time will come eventually.
The lyrics "I smoke when I wanna/Eat what I crave/Drink with piranhas/Nobodies slave" further emphasize this point, suggesting that the singer will not be constrained by conventions or the opinions of others. The contrast drawn between "good people" and those who are "open and honest" suggests that these are different groups, with the latter being more authentic and true to themselves. The repetition of "day by day" and "living in the light" reinforces the idea that life is a moment-by-moment experience, and that we should strive to live freely and authentically, without fear of judgment or regret.
