Daybreak
I and I will survive Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I went 'round to stand in your hall
To watch you descend
While your taxi slowed
Outside my home
For the last drive by
I went 'round for to fill your sail

What a way to wake
What a way to wake
We're cracking with the break of day

And God gave us guts
To have feelings, to spill
But why would you let them show
When they look like this

What a way to wake
What a way to wake
We're cracking with the break of day

Break the day
Break the day




With your fire light
We'll break the day

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of I and I will survive's song Daybreak describe a scene of farewell and longing. The singer went to stand in the hallway of the person they admire while they watched them descend, knowing that it would be the last time they would see them leave. The song talks about how we all have the capability of feeling deeply and expressing those emotions, but often choose to hide them because they can be difficult to express or understand. The singer then reflects on the beauty of breaking through those barriers that prevent us from being vulnerable and genuine with others. They express a desire to break the day with the fire of their love, to push past the darkness and into the light.


The lyrics in Daybreak are deeply layered with meaning and symbolism. The act of watching someone leave is often associated with heartbreak and loss, and the sense of longing in the singer's voice is palpable. They remark on the courage it takes to express our emotions openly, something that many people struggle with. The bridge, "And God gave us guts/To have feelings, to spill," is a testament to the power of vulnerability and the importance of sharing our truth with others. The chorus repeats the phrase, "What a way to wake/We're cracking with the break of day," adding to the sense of breaking free from something and moving towards the light. The use of light and darkness is also a powerful metaphor for the emotions we are experiencing.

I went 'round to stand in your hall
I went to your house and stood in the hallway


To watch you descend
I wanted to see you go down the stairs


While your taxi slowed
When your taxi started to slow down


Outside my home
In front of my house


For the last drive by
For the last time you drive by my house


I went 'round for to fill your sail
I went to give you emotional support


What a way to wake
What a great way to start the day


We're cracking with the break of day
We're becoming energized with the start of the day


And God gave us guts
We were given the courage


To have feelings, to spill
To be emotional, to express ourselves


But why would you let them show
Why would you display your emotions


When they look like this
When they might be too intense or undesirable


Break the day
Make the most of the day


With your fire light
With your passion and energy


We'll break the day
We'll make the most of the day with our energy

I main The Werewolf and The Cyborg. They’re the few decently balanced killers in the game. Most of the killers are pretty OP or just really odd to play around as a survivor. (Especially Imaginary Friends). The meta of the game so far is to rush the generators, and so the best counter play is better detection and generator control.

I have one idea for a killer, The Scarecrow, a killer who can set crows down as traps, when the crows are startled by a nearby survivor the scarecrow can teleport to that location if they are in range. The teleportation takes about 2-3 seconds allowing the survivor to get a head start. But this allows the scarecrow to initiate a chase to punish ignorant survivors… or to protect a point of contention like the doorway to a house or to a generator. The scarecrow only gets 5 crows to place down. If the crows HAVE NOT activated for 90 seconds, they will fly away and return to the scarecrow.

Passive ability wise, when the scarecrow uses detection, their terror radius is increased to twice its size for the duration of detection. When the scarecrow downs or kills a survivor, their terror radius is halved for 30 seconds. (Yes this killer is based off of the Hag from dbd)

Sounds like an interesting concept for a scarecrow killer. I do like the explanation :]
