Tomorrows Just Another Day
Mad'Ness Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Trying hard, I thought I'd done my best
All my life, I can't get no rest
Some who've closed the door before
Say I can't carry on no more.

I hear them saying
Tomorrow's just another day
I hear them saying
And it gets better every day
I hear them saying
Tomorrow's just another day

Listened long, tried to take it in
All these facts leave me in the swim
It's down and down there is no up
I think that I've run out of luck.

I hear them saying
Tomorrow's just another day
I hear them saying
And it gets better every day
I hear them saying
Tomorrow's just another day
Tomorrow's just another... day

Walking now, over covered ground
There is a chance if I move around
I need a moment to reflect
On the friendships I have wrecked.

Why is it I don't I always try ?

I hear them say
Tomorrow's just another day
I hear them say
And it gets better every day
I hear them say
Tomorrow's just another day
I hear them say
And it gets better every day
I heard them say
Tomorrow's just another day
I hear them say
Tomorrow's just another day
Tomorrow's just another...

I hear them saying
Tomorrow's just another day
I hear them saying
And it gets better every day




I hear them saying
Tomorrow's just another day

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Mad'Ness's song "Tomorrows Just Another Day" explore the concept of struggling through life's challenges and the comforting yet frustrating encouragement that "tomorrow's just another day." The first verse sets the scene with the singer attempting his best but not being able to attain true peace or rest. He hears others who have given up on him, claiming that he won't be able to go on. The repetition of the phrase "I hear them saying" emphasizes the weight of these negative voices, drowning out the singer's own thoughts.


In the second verse, the singer listens to these negative voices and succumbs to the feeling of endless downward spirals. He feels like he's run out of luck and can't see the upside to the bleakness he's surrounded by. However, he eventually moves forward and tries to reflect on his past actions, recognizing the damage he has caused to his friendships. The chorus is repeated several times throughout the song, with a small change in the final chorus adding "I heard them say" before "tomorrow's just another day". This final line emphasizes the ongoing feeling that the singer is hearing these negative voices in his head, as they are deeply rooted in his subconscious.


Overall, the lyrics to this song are about finding hope in the face of adversity, but also acknowledging the weight of negativity that can come from both internal and external sources. It emphasizes the importance of reflection and owning up to one's own shortcomings, even as outside voices attempt to drag us down.

Trying hard, I thought I'd done my best
I put all my effort in this but I'm yet to see positive results


All my life, I can't get no rest
I've been struggling for so long and still have no peace


Some who've closed the door before
The people who rejected or abandoned me


Say I can't carry on no more.
They believe I'm not strong enough to keep going


I hear them saying
I'm listening to what they have to say


Tomorrow's just another day
They're implying that tomorrow will be just like today


And it gets better every day
Some also believe that things will improve gradually


Listened long, tried to take it in
I've tried to absorb all the information being given to me


All these facts leave me in the swim
All these facts are overwhelming me


It's down and down there is no up
There is no way for me to go but down


I think that I've run out of luck.
I feel like I've exhausted all my good fortune


Walking now, over covered ground
I'm moving forward, but it feels like I'm walking through quicksand

I'm questioning why I don't always put in my best effort


I heard them say
I'm still hearing them even when they're not around

Tomorrow's just another...
The suggestion that tomorrow will be just like today is never-ending

Behind all that comedy lies a lot of melancholy and superb musical phrases I’ve never heard before! Madness sound will last for ages. With all my respect for the band members, Mike Barson is a fucking genius !

Happy music with melancholic words! Awesome song arrangements that have aged very well. Ahead of their time with their social conscience at the forefront.

It’s hard for me to comprehend that I’m now 50 this month and the first cassette I ever owned was the Rise and Fall and then Madness 7. I was around 10 or 11 and listening to them on a small radio cassette recorder with a single speaker in my tiny bedroom. Fast forward 40 years and I’m back in the family home, mam and dad have passed away and I’ve moved back in after a pointless relationship... late on June the 12th I played The Rise and Fall going from 49 to 50.... why? I’m not sure but it was memorable and I was pretty drunk 😵

@amonrawya3064

I'm sorry to hear about your relationship, and your parents. I can't say I know what's it like, I'm only fifteen. But I hope the days get better for you, as I'm going through a rough go at the moment. Not nearly as bad as you, I imagine, but we've both ended up here. Maddness was my childhood soundtrack, and it feels comforting to come back here when things are tough. I wish you the very best, sir.
