How Many Days
Muzz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And now we're golden, still and over, 'neath the sun
How the ease and wonder grows
And so with daylight, forgotten phases spun
With no reason to be undone

And now the days are numbered
And all the games have run
Well, I plead my case, 'cause nothing's over
And I'm bleeding my way until it's done
Done

Nobody nowhere can see the trees of creation
No reasonable faith in some
Can never quell this, some sudden reaches bound
To other ceaseless founts of shake
Don't bow down, don't follow sadness
Don't chase the demon's tail tonight
Ungodly artifice, the lovers leap defy
Another dream we've applied to the honest

And now the days are numbered
And all the games have run




Well, I plead my case, 'cause nothing's over
I will heed my way until it's done

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Muzz's song "How Many Days" delve into themes of time passing, the transience of life, and the search for meaning. The opening lines "And now we're golden, still and over, 'neath the sun" convey a sense of tranquility and contentment in the present moment. The mention of being "golden" suggests a state of enlightenment or fulfillment. As the song progresses, the lyrics explore the notion that time is limited and that everything has an expiration date. The line "And now the days are numbered" implies that each day is precious and should be cherished.


The lyrics also touch on the idea that existence is a game with its own set of rules. The phrase "all the games have run" suggests that life's opportunities and challenges have come to an end. Despite this, the singer refuses to give up or surrender, expressing determination to "plead my case" and continue fighting until the end. The lyrics seem to convey a sense of defiance in the face of uncertainty and the unknown.


The second verse introduces the concept of the limitations of human perception. The line "Nobody nowhere can see the trees of creation" suggests that we are unable to fully grasp the intricacies of the world around us. The lyrics challenge the idea that faith alone can provide all the answers and imply that there are boundless sources of knowledge and understanding beyond our comprehension.
