Wild and Perfect Day
Jochen Miller Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I could've stayed for another empty year
I could've touched your hand when the time was right
But it's never right
And your eyes move away
It's a wild, perfect day
I should've never even let you in
But your words were thin
'Cause something better than wanting you
Is the thought of being done with you
And my mind moves away
It's a wild, perfect day
We let the world pass by
it's joy, it's pain
The fact that it's a lie
The apathy, I say
It's a wild it's a wild
It's a wild and perfect day
The lyrics of Jochen Miller's "Wild And Perfect Day" revolve around a moment of clarity and empowerment in a relationship. The singer reflects on the ways he could have lied, stayed, or compromised to maintain a dysfunctional partnership, but instead chooses to embrace the truth and let go. He acknowledges the attraction and chemistry with his partner ("I could've touched your hand when the time was right"), but also sees through their flaws and deception ("your mouth was big, but your words were thin"). In the chorus, he describes the moment when he decides to break free as a "wild, perfect day", a time of contradictions and paradoxes.
The song also touches upon larger themes of the human experience, such as the fleeting nature of joy and pain ("we let the world pass by, it's joy, it's pain"), the awareness of falsehood and nihilism ("the fact that it's a lie"), and the difficulty of caring for someone who no longer serves our interests ("something better than wanting you is the thought of being done with you"). Ultimately, "Wild And Perfect Day" is a song about courage, honesty, and the power of letting go.
