Save Today
Seether Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Spoken word's and song's unsung, right?
I never learned from my mistakes
I guess I don't have what it takes, right?
I wish that I was strong, that I could walk away
All this time I've lost, I feel the cost repaid
So save today, the secret's that you prayed for
So save, the secret's that your prayed for, awake
I'll see you on the other side
A tortured soul have I become
It keep's me safe and leaves me numb, right?
'Cause in this dream I'm wide awake
The one I love I did forsake, right?
I wish that I was wrong, that you'll come home again
All this time I've lost, I'll never find again
So save today, the secret's that you prayed for
And wait, cause we deserve it so much more
So save, the secret's that you prayed for, awake
I'll see you on the other side
Say you can help me now
So save today, the secret's that you prayed for
And wait, cause we deserve it so much more
So save, the secret's that you prayed for, awake
I'll see you on the other side
So save today, the secret's that you prayed for
And wait, cause we deserve it so much more
So save, the secret's that you prayed for, awake
I'll see you on the other side

The singer is aware of the mistakes he's made and feels a sense of regret that he has not learned from them.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the need to save the present moment and embrace the future. The singer acknowledges the importance of the secrets that he has prayed for, but suggests that waiting for them to come true is not enough. The song urges listeners to take action and create the life they want. The repetition of the phrase "I'll see you on the other side" suggests that the singer is looking forward to a better future and a new beginning.
Overall, "Save Today" is a poignant reminder that we cannot change the past but we can make the most of the present and look forward to a bright future. It is a powerful song that speaks to anyone who has ever regretted their choices and wished they could go back in time.

This song played in the remembrance slideshow for our son's memorial. He was 30 when he passed in Jan 2019 from alcohol abuse. It's left a huge hole in our hearts. He would have been 35 today. Happy birthday big guy! We miss you!

I lost my wife of 12 yrs June 22, 2019 I hear this and it's automatic tears, but still the scents of hope and to do better as a person bcuz of the lack of the precious time we are given. Stay Strong and Keep going, Nothing lasts 4ever. Finding the way 2 accept that is hard, but find a way 2 keep those negative thoughts and sadness a bay.
