Beautiful Day
Hypertrophy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Done it all, had my cake now
Diamonds, brilliant, and Bel-Air now
Hot summer nights mid July
When you and I were forever wild
The crazy days, the city lights
The way you'd play with me like a child
Will you still love me when I got nothing but my aching soul
I know you will, I know you will
I know that you will
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful
I've seen the world, lit it up as my stage now
Channeling angels in, the new age now
Hot summer days, rock and roll
The way you'd play for me at your show
And all the ways I got to know
Your pretty face and electric soul
Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful
Will you still love me when I got nothing but my aching soul
I know you will, I know you will
I know that you will
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful
Will you still love me when I'm not young and beautiful
The song "Beautiful Day" by Hypertrophy is a nostalgic and melancholic tribute to a past romantic relationship. The lyrics depict a whirlwind romance filled with excitement and extravagance, as the singer describes their experiences traveling the world, enjoying the finer things in life, and attending wild parties. The chorus, however, reveals a sense of uncertainty and insecurity, as the singer questions whether their partner's affection will endure as they grow older and lose their youth and beauty. Despite their doubts, the singer ultimately remains hopeful that their love will endure.
The first verse sets the scene for a glamorous lifestyle: the singer has "seen the world" and enjoyed the luxuries of "diamonds, brilliant, and Bel-Air". They reminisce about hot summer nights spent with their lover, feeling "forever wild", and the playful way they interacted as a couple. The second verse shifts to the singer's experiences as a musician and performer. They describe the rush of performing onstage, feeling like they are "channeling angels in the new age", and the thrill of having their partner play for them. The song closes with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the singer's question about their partner's love enduring beyond their youth and beauty.
Overall, "Beautiful Day" is a wistful and introspective reflection on the fleeting nature of youth, beauty, and love. The singer yearns for the intensity and passion of their past relationship while grappling with the fear of losing it. The lyrics and melody provide a poignant and plaintive tone, conveying the complexity of human emotions.
