not today
Nasson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

NOT TODAY

The scars I've been wearin' for so long
once written by loss and despair
they hid in the shadows for so long so long

Breathe new life to my memories
to finally find myself
I've been hiding in the shadows for so long

Wandering in the dark
searching the voice that was lost in me

One day I'll remember
one day I won't fight no more
someday I'll fade away
One day I'll remember
the day I couldn't take no more
someday but not today

The scars I've been wearin' for so long
are vanishing day by day
fading away with the sorrow

Wandering in the dark
searching the voice that was lost in me
In the light of the dawn
I'll find the strength to carry on

One day I'll remember
one day I won't fight no more
someday I'll fade away
One day I'll remember
the day I couldn't take no more
someday but not today

Wandering in the dark
looking for answers, searching for something to live for
Wandering in the dark




Is this my sentence?
Eternal quest for a reason?
